When I was checking my plants today I noticed a few unhappy things about them.
1 Tiny white insects on the back of some leaves
2 Big spots and brown edges on some leaves
3 White spots on some leaves
Please help and let me know what these are, what I can do about it, and which do I need to attack first.
Problems with my tomato plants
"tiny white insects" make me think of whiteflies or maybe aphids, either one you would be able to take care of by spraying on a mixture of water and dish soap.
The second photo looks like a Magnesium nutrient deficiency in the plant. An easy fix would be an application of epsom salts, either by making a mixture of 1-2 tablespoons per gallon of water and spraying it on, or sprinkling a handful of the dry granules around the plant base and watering it in.
The third looks like some other kind of insect damage, which remedy #1 at the top would probably help put a stop to.
