🍅 EARLY BLIGHT — Remove affected lower leaves, mulch the soil, water at the base, and rotate tomatoes to a new area next season.

🍅 WATER STRESS — Check the soil before watering, then keep moisture steady without leaving roots constantly wet or completely dry.
🍅 PHYSIOLOGICAL LEAF ROLL — Usually no treatment is needed. Water consistently, avoid excessive pruning, and protect plants from severe heat stress.
🍅 BACTERIAL SPOT / SPECK — Remove badly affected leaves, avoid handling wet plants, water at soil level, and never save seeds from infected plants.
🍅 SPIDER MITES — Rinse leaf undersides with water and, if needed, use a labeled insecticidal soap while following its directions carefully.
🍅 NUTRIENT DEFICIENCY — Test the soil before adding fertilizer, correct the confirmed deficiency, and avoid random Epsom salt treatments.
