Vegetable Diseases
- We're having a lot of trouble with diseases in tomatoes. Leaves turn brown from the bottom of the plant and move upward. Is it a blight or a wilt? We've moved the plants and rotated them to a new location in the garden but this hasn't helped. So now we're thinking about creating raised beds. Will that help if these are soil fungi?
- I would like to start seeds inside. I have started them, but as soon as they start growing, they just fall over and die. What am I doing wrong?
- My tomatoes have dry, black patches on the botton end. What is this and how can I stop it? Blossom end rot
