Author Content bunnygarden Venice, FL May 9, 2008 1:34 PM Post #4929246 I live in Florida (9b) and have several tomato plants going -about 20 last I checked- and my original 12 have a wierd fungus. The leaves are developing yellow spots with what looks like a white mold over it. I sprayed them with a systemic fungicide containing daconil about a week ago. However, The day I sprayed it I noticed that the stems were looking funny and bubling almost. 2 days ago my boyfriend was trimming off some of the dead stuff and noticed the same problem, it was mushy and bubbly and rotting it looked like. Any suggestions? kalika22 Denham Springs, LA (Zone 8b) May 10, 2008 5:08 PM Post #4933770 It's hard to tell without pictures.

I think its leaf mold. hopefully the fungicide works thanks again. kalika22 Denham Springs, LA (Zone 8b) May 12, 2008 11:03 AM Post #4940633 You're very welcome, and good luck with your tomatoes. :) bunnygarden Venice, FL May 12, 2008 1:00 PM Post #4941100 thanks I found out its leaf mold. very easy to transmit but easy to solve too. they look much better already!
