Beefsteak Tomatoes diseased
in Talkback
Hi all,
I planted Beefsteaks back in March and they've reached a good size now, however, they are all catching a certain disease and I don't know what's causing it! The same disease killed all of my tomatoes last year so it would be great if someone could identify it and provide a solution. Here's a picture of one of the tomato's.

To me it looks like the leaves have got wet, then it has got scorched by the sun.
I agree with Jeff, try not to get the leaves wet, water only from the bottom, just the compost.
Hi guys, It does appear to be sun scorched but I've kept them indoors and watered only the compost. they have been in physical contact with the window so perhaps that's what's causing it?
There also appears to be what looks like rust on the lower leaves Which are slowly withering, any ideas?
They should be outside in a greenhouse by now. They are possibly too hot in a window.
Ah ok, I moved them out there last week. Thanks for all the feedback
