Sorry to bother you all but can you help me?
 

Question one: What disease do I have on this leaf and do you know the name of this tomato of the first two pictures?

Question two: I know its not a disease question but since you are helping with question one. I figure I can ask question two here as well. Let me know if that's okay if not, then direct me to where I can post.

Thanks Tomatoville friends for any help you can provide for I know your time is precious. I appreciate any helpful information.

Happy Saturday everyone!

Question #1- your not gonna like this, but it's spider mites. They go wild in hot weather, they really really breed in hot dry weather. That stippled yellow leaf is absolutely diagnostic, nothing else looks quite like that.
Question #2, other than it being a paste shaped tomato, I haven't a clue.:?!?:

Spider mites: Do I Pull tomato plant out?

No, here is remedy that helped me. I got that from RobinB:

“…diatomaceous earth and an empty spray bottle, put one T of DE into a 32oz bottle, fill with water and shake until the DE dissolves. Then spray those plants with spider mites. When it dries you will see a white film on the plant. Reapply after it rains.”

And it is safe organic method, there is no way of overdoing it.

I was trying to figure out what PITA stand for because when I read pita. I think of bread but in this case, I think it means something else ;)

Some more insight if needed.They should be visible,look for webs also.

I did not see webs until much later. Plus, there are many different varieties of mites as well.
And, the web can be on the nearby surface, between structures. Examen and spray them too. By nearby I meant a foot away.

Ha Ha! I took me a sec to figure it out too!:lol:

I agree about the mites... but what is the second question?

Carol ~ 2nd question, what is the name of the tomato? Is this question like finding a needle in a haystack?

Does this also look like spider mite damage?

Do you know how many times I read that post? I kept looking over and over at the "second question" line and I guess I wasn't really reading the whole "first question" one... duh.
Yep, needle in a haystack or better known now as "the orphan".

Luigi... no, that doesn't look like mites. It looks like sun damage. it should be fine. did they wilt down at some point? I see that happen on mine, but it doesn't seem to hurt them. As a matter of fact, I think my "pick a bushel" variety might look like that now that I think about them... Maybe heavy nutritional use and not enough fertilizer available, too.

Yes

The picture below from last year (taken August 8th) shows cucumber leaf with spider mites web in the middle. I started spraying with DE every time it rained or new leaves got bigger. Was picking cucumbers until October.

I grow organically, no harmful pesticides. Two year ago at the end of the season spider mites infestation was so bad my marigolds looked like I decorated them for a Halloween. I pulled tomatoes, other plants. It did not help. The Spider mites were everywhere. So when RobinB shared her method I was trilled. It worked, just have to be diligent and spray, do not procrastinate. That last part of the sentence is for me.
