What am I - TSWV?

mcsee · May 17, 2017

Hoping someone can anyone give me a name for this, is it TSWV. Effecting Cherry Tomatoes.

Thanks.

You have a pic? Did you happen to forget to post one?

Edited to say... Sorry about that. Never mind. My computer must be really slow, but it finally did show the pic.

I do see your photo and no, that is not TSWV. Unfortunately, I have never seen that before and I have no idea what it is, but I have had my fair share of TSWV in my own garden and that's not it. I hope someone can chime in and identify your problem.

Could that be the mysterious Tomato Purple Leaf Disorder?

Never seen that before and hope I never do. Sounds like it spreads from plant to plant after it starts. I worry because any disease or problem that starts down in Florida seems to always work its way up into lower Alabama in short order.

I thought it was just a Florida thing, but something looking like that in Australia?
It's been about 9 years since it first appeared and no new information on what causes it.
