So THAT's what has destroyed my tomatoes this year! Good to know (for next year).

Katie

What a bummer!

Hmm. I have some tomato plants that are a little sickly, but they don't seem quite this bad so now I'm puzzled.

Sorry about your tomatoes.

Hey Elizabeth,
The mites are terrible this year, ask Daniel, he will tell you all about it.

Katie,
It is a bummer, but I got some great tomatoes anyway.

Kalyn,
It maybe a California thing, I don't know. It was a damp winter and mild summer and they say that made it worse.

I'm so glad you posted these photos. It's affecting my tomato plants, too. I've been pruning off the brown leaves, and spraying the green leaves with a concoction I use to annihilate %$#&# squash bugs.

Recipe: Soak garlic in mineral oil overnight, then add 7th Generation laundry soap, and water. Spray early morning or late afternoon, to avoid angering the bees.

Your harvested tomatoes look great!

Hey Markene,
So it sounds like your "special spray" is working. That's great, I love to here about home made remedies. Excellent.

Markene,

Do you remember the ratios of each of those ingredients?
