Latest Plague
So in addition to aphids, fleabeetles, stinkbugs, grasshoppers, armyworms, hornworms, EB, Septoria, BER, catfacing and sunscald, these spots have appeared on many tomato leaves throughout the patch. Seems like a moldy thing but I couldn't id by looking on-line so far. First pic is top side, second is underside.
Any ideas what it might be and/or suggestions for what to do? Thanks.  kath |

There are two kinds of Powdery Mildew and they aren't that easy to tell apart in the initial stages, but the Oidium one speaks more to circular light green lesions than does the Leveillula one. However the possible treatment is the same, so I wouldn't worry that much about which specific Powdery Mildew it is.
