Thanks, Stevie. Weather has been decent... nights are over 50 degrees and highs around 70. It is about to warm up quite a bit so maybe the dots will vanish at some point (fingers crossed). I had issues with Septoria Leaf Spot last year so was hoping it was not that again. Leaves look fine

Don't know what it is but I get that a lot and it doesn't ever seem to be an issue.

Tomato plants produce anthocyanin to protect against cold stress. I'm pretty sure those specks are the result of that. I see the same specks on my tomato plants sometimes--it has never progressed to disease. The reason I'm fairly sure it's tied to anthocyanin production is because I grew a high-anthocyanin variety (black beauty) last year, and that plant had those little specks on the stems all season and much more densely.

Can you possibly post a picture ?

Are you talking to me or Evan, Sey?

Gorbelly, I was talking to Evan, to see how the black dots looks like.

Sey, link is in my first post but here it is again:

Looks normal to me.

Agree with Janice, I also think that is normal.

I wouldn't worry about it at all.

I have the same spots on my 3 largest/oldest of my seedlings. It seems pretty healthy, and when I tickle them it gives off that wonderful tomato smell :)

I have the same tiny back speckes on stem and some leaves?
