New Gardner needing help

12 years ago

I have some sort of disease on my grape tomato plant. I found some pictures on net that called in LAte blight but most the pictures of late blite do not look the same. Picture of plant is above. eventually the rest of the leave turns yellow then withers.

Also any one have good comprehensive sources for identifying and treating plant diseases and pest.

Thanks
Pm

In ground or in pots?? What have you been feeding them?

Possibly a severe phosphorous deficiency... but I'm not 100% on that.

Agree with nutrient deficiency rather than disease. Need much more information on the growing methods you are using. Most likely phosphorous but also shows some elements of micro-nutrient deficiencies.

In a raised bed with miracle grow and top soil, typically add a 13-13-13. Will add a little more. Thanks for all info everyone.
