| I'm starting to get worried about these spots. I've been growing these tomatoes under T5's for a little over a month and I am getting ready to transplant them into the garden, but I am worried that this is some kind of fungus or bacterial infection. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. -Dave |

| Spots develop on leaves for many reasons and the majority of them are nothing to be concerned about. This is just what is often called "environmental damage" from growing conditions - in this case indoors with artificial lighting, inconsistent soil moisture level, in a small container, and poor air circulation etc. etc. The odds of any plant developing any of the common tomato diseases while growing indoors is practically nil. Not IMpossible but very improbable. Plant them. Dave |

| Could be fertilizer burn. Did you use a liquid fertilizer over the top of them? Anyhow, I agree that it is some form of environmental damage and nothing to worry about. |
