What disease is this?

roper2008 · May 13, 2012

This Aunt Ginny's plant was fine when I last looked at it Monday. Now
the leaves are all curling up and have purplish edges. Any suggestions as
to what it is and treatment?

I have daconil, Seranade and Bonide Tomato & Vegetable 3 in 1 Insecticide, Fungicide, Miticide.

Well I decided to go with the Bonide. Will update if it helps.

Doesn't look like disease to me. Leaf curl? Looks like some of my plants and never seems to be a problem unless I am not seeing something obvious in the pics.

I see a bugger in the 1st pic - perhaps a flea beetle some chew marks here & there.
Also some purpling tint going on. Phosphorus deficiency?
Are they the lower leaves, and getting leathery?
Not familiar with Aunts Giny's.
