Tomato Plant Looking Like Fiddleheads
2 Attachment(s)
Hello, friends...
I was visiting with a friend last week and she had some tomato plants with deformed leaves and greenery in a manner neither of us had ever seen before. These pics she sent me really don't do justice to what I saw but hope some of you can get the gist of it from them and render an opinion on what might be going on. HINT: The deformed plants that are taking on odd shapes are located in a portion of her garden that she says was at one time a "burn pile" (I guess in an area for burning trash by the previous homeowners). Tomato plants elsewhere in her yard are not taking on these oddly fiddle-shaped protrusions - only those on the "burn pile", even though she has amended all the soil, etc. Experts...what do you think?![ATTACH]88500[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]88501[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]88500[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]88501[/ATTACH] |

That looks like herbicide damage to me. Tomato plants are very sensitive to drift from spraying weed killers.

I thought maybe herbicide. I wonder if the plants will outgrow it if it is Weed Killer etc - seems a s if 3 sides of my property have lawn service and maybe they don't know the meaning of "drift":?!?::evil:

If it is not real bad then they can outgrow it.

Thanks brownrex

Just checked the original pdf in the thread, and noticed that apparently I've had quite a bit of root knot. It didn't concern me much at the time, because the plants grew well.
