I'm attaching some pictures. Four pictures of plant one - I pruned that stem and am showing you several shots. Then have four other tom's pictures...

Thanks!
Hi Babice, these photos are exactly what mine looked like when I burned them 2 years ago. They'll come back if you stop killing them with kindness.
I did the same thing. It's a good mistake, because we learned from it.

TheLoneTomatillo - I actually do have a couple that read to apply to the point of drip/run off. The one I had in hand reading yesterday was Natria. I guess maybe it's best to say to always remember to specifically look for that on the label. Look at the beginning of the label, not just the tomato section. Revision: read also RayR's post below.

Natria is a biological fungide, distributed by Bayer under license from Agraquest, it's identical to Serenade Garden Disease Control.

ACTIVE INGREDIENT:
QST 713 strain of Bacillus subtilis* . . . 0.074%
OTHER INGREDIENTS . . . . . . . . . . . . . 99.926%
TOTAL 100.000%
*Contains a minimum of 1 x 108 CFU/g

Babice, it's always good to apply biological fungicides to the point of runoff, chemicals not so much.

Ooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! So - if I was using Actinovate by itself? Would that be considered biological?

Of course it is, Actinovate contains living organisms, Streptomyces lydicus strain WYEC 108. If it's alive, it's biological.
