Fresh, homegrown tomatoes… the reward for hard work that began with seedlings in April. Unfortunately, problems can (and do) arise. Fear not- here are some resouces to help diagnose and (in some cases) cure that which ails your tomato plants:
Physiological, Nutritional, and Other Disorders of Tomato Fruit- Stephen M. Olson (University of Florida IFAS Extension)
Diagnosing and Controlling Fungal Diseases of Tomato in the Home Garden- Rutgers NJAES Cooperative Extension (free pdf download)
Common Tomato Fruit Disorders- Cornell University Dept. of Plant Pathology
Tomato Problem Solver- Texas A&M
Beneficial Insects/Organisms- University of Nebraska-Lincoln, Dept. of Entomology
These links should help. Your local extension office is an additional resource as well (Jefferson County Cooperative Extension Office – UK College of Agriculture). Good luck!
