| This is my fisrt year growing vegetables in a lonnngg time. I've been looking at lots of tomato disease posts and pics and it looks like bacterial spot, but I'm just not certain. Any help would be tremendously appreciated, I'll be really bummed out if I lose these 2 plants. Thanks in advance.
The facts are these:
-Roma Determinate planted May 5th.
-Red Beefsteak Indeterminate planted a few days later.
-Both were Bonnie brand seedlings from one of the Home centers.
-Planted in DIY Self Watering Containers, Dual Rubbermaid tote 18 gallon and 14 gallon design with a 2qt wicking chamber.
-Miracle Grow Potting Mix, 2 cups of garden lime.
-Beefsteak has 3 cups of Plant-Tone brand fertilizer in strips on top.
-Roma has 2 cups of Peterson? Vegetable Fertilizer in strips on top.
-Roma has slightly curling leaves and pronounced dark brown leaf edges and small dark brown spots on leaves and stems. some yellow (but not much) around some of the leaf spots. -Started on bottom and has been steadily spreading upward.
-Beefsteak has lesser symptoms on a few lower leaves.
-I've sprayed for pests a few times with tea of onion-garlic-cayenne-soap.
-Roma has a couple of small fruit and a fair amount of blossoms, no sign of BER.
-Beefsteak has just started to blossom.
-Both plants have been growing vigorously.
