Help identifying disease/virus

kameronth · August 9, 2016

It's been a pretty humid and warm summer for us and I'm having some issues with my plants. I'm thinking I've got more than one disease/virus going on. I need help identifying them. Here are some photos:

Your fruit looks to have stinkbug punctures. You may also have gray mold or early blight but I will let others decide that one.

It's bacterial speck.

Wouldn't bacterial spot be more likely in the heat of summer? Bacterial speck I've seen always has much smaller lesions as well.

The halo around the spot gives speck away.

I defer to your much greater expertise. It's good news for kameronth. Of all the diseases that could look like that, I'd much rather be dealing with speck!
