Purple Spots & Other Leaf Issues
Hey All
I have a Giant Belgian Pink tomato plant (in a 15 gallon fabric pot w/irrigation tubing) that is having leaf issues. It’s got tomatoes growing & new ones forming but the bottom leaves are starting to show problems. Purple spots & that frightening “water mark-ish” appearance. It looks like maybe there are 2 things going on but I have no idea what they are. We have had some seriously jacked-up weather here in SE Louisiana this spring-5 straight days of rain, then hot & dry—then more rain (& high winds). I’m spraying weekly with Daconil & alternating with copper or mancozeb, but I’m thinking it’s just been to much rain to avoid cooties! The other 3 plants (Cherokee P., GGWT & L. Sunset) are fine—same grow bags, same potting mixture & same fertilizer. |
