Question:

Tomato leaves turning Grey?

by  |  earlier

0 LIKES UnLike

I have eight pots of tomato's in my back yard. My Roma tomato leaves are suddenly becomoing grey, shriveled, and very crisp. The sickness, or whatever it is, is spreading to the edge of my Beefstake's in the pot beside it. They were doing fine up until three days ago, they even started to fruit.

I have a ton of misquetoes living in them.

I use Liquid Seven tomato spray.

And all of the soil had some 10-10-10 sprinkled in it.

Does anyone know what may be wrong, and how I can fix it? I really don't want them to die after all the work me and my dad put into them!

  1. This website is awesome.

    Click on the group of "sick" leaves that match closest to your leaves. That will take you to a larger view of those leaves.. then you find the one that you have, click on that, and tada you have your answer. SO easy and awesome.


  2. Actually if you look real close at the leaves..i bet they have a very slight purplish tint in that grey you see..this is caused by phospherous defiency..Get a box of miracle grow "bloom'booster" and feed it..bloom booster has alot of phospherous in it and will fix this as well as make the roots strong, and make it flower and fruit more..do not confuse it with all purpose miracle grow..which would be a NO NO to feed it now..this is mostly nitrogen which you don't need for it just makes the leaves produce and no fruit..here is a picture of the bloom booster..and also a link with tomatoe problems..scroll down to.."purple leaves"...at the bottom of this link on the problem indentifying chart..
