  • Question

    Located in MA. Just got a few Red Brandywine tomato plants that don’t look super healthy. Before I plant them in the raised beds, would like to know if there are any major diseases going on here. There are yellow leaves, a few leaves with some gray/black on them and one or more leaf that appears gradient dark then becoming more light towards the tip. They also appear puffy. I can include more photos if helpful. Thank you for any help you may be able to provide. Melissa

    Answer

    Dear melissaj312, good morning. I'm sorry that I cannot help. I am not a plant pathologist or horticulturalist. There are many things that can affect plant growth that I'm not familiar enough with to diagnose. Go Botany is a website dedicated to wild plant identification and conservation in New England. I hope you will be able to find the answer and keep your plant healthy.
