My small garden only has 5 tomato plants in it & something is making the foliage turn are rusty color. Doesn't look like the normal tomato blight we get in Texas & plants are setting a ton of fruit & new growth looks fine but about halfway down they look the rusty color & the foliage is curling & dying. My 2 Romas are huge (over 6' tall stretched out) & have it but my 1 celebrity looks the worse - the foliage down the center is all dead but it's setting fruit & showing new green growth on top & my 2 Carnivals are hardly affected at all (little on both plants but not much). I should also add about a week & half ago I accidently let the soaker hose on for too long (dang WalMart..never enough cashiers...LOL) & when I got it turned off the garden had about 2" of water setting on it but was soaked up within 2 hours. LMKP what you think this might be & how to cure it organically if possible - open to all ideas & suggestions. Sorry no pics - camera is in shop ( they don't work well after falling in garden fountain - remember never garden & talk - it could be more costly than you think...LOL). Thanks for your help & Happy gardening to y'all from N Texas.
What makes a tomato plant look like red rust?
Cats... Ya might ask your question over in the tomato forum. Lots of mater folks there that might know what your dealing with. Haven't heard of rusty leaves before myself.
