Leaf roll with purple and yellow spots

zipcode · June 23, 2011

Since about 2 weeks I have a rapidly advancing problem on my lower to mid leaves, especially on new big dwarf. All plants are in pots on the balcony. Wasn't sure if I should make a new thread or hijack the 'Tobacco Mosaic Virus or Environmental Stress' thread which has quite similar problems I think.

Here are some pics:

Ignore the date, wrong camera settings.

The plants are now 3-4 feet tall, and have some small tomatoes which don't grow much, since this problem is advancing fast. The problem appears mostly on the leaves towards the sun, but they only get max 4 hours of sun.
I thought of some sort of deficiency as it doesn't look like a disease, but it doesn't quite match any, and I've searched the internet high and low.

I'm using Neudorff tomaten dunger as fertilizer (organic 7-3-10 with some other elements and mycorrhizae ). I didn't use too much, just a bit more than according to package instructions (since it's in pots).

Please help!
