My earliest producing slicing tomato this year (and last) has wispy foliage. It is determinate which I think may help with earliness. I have been calling it 'fern-like' because since it is determinate it grows more as a bush and less like the wispy-vines that I associate with something like Anna Russian.
I'm growing Roma-type tomatoes this year. They are potato leaved, and the leaves look deformed to me. Perhaps I aughta take photos to share. If it's diseased I might as well cull it sooner rather than later.
