Looks a bit like potassium deficiency. K is very important to the plant's immune system function. Do you have a fertilizer with lots of K in it (last #)? Bloom ferts are a good place to look. Mix up a half strength solution of that with a drop of dish soap and do a foliar feed. Also check carefully on the leaves, including UNDER them, to see if there are any larvae on the top or webs and eggs on the bottom.
ive been looking for bugs to no avail. i wish i would find some (bugs)i dont want to lose my haleys comet strain im the only person i know who has it.
here is a good outline of my symptoms and its a def of tomato pepper bacterial leaf blight.
Infected tomato leaf has dark watersoaked circular spots which are about 3 mm in sizes but may become larger when the temperature is right. The spots become angular and turn brown-black. Eventually, the centre of the spots may dry and leaf may drop prematurely. Infected young fruit has small black spots. As the bacteria further develop, the spots turn brown, slightly sunken, scabby, and sometimes surrounded by rings. Severe infestation gives the plant the appearance of blight.
Infected pepper leaf has small, circular pale-green raised spots. Eventually, the spots become chocolate-brown with a paler-brown center on the lower leaf surface. During severe infestation, the plant drops most of its leaves leaving its fruits exposed to direct sunlight. Infected fruit has circular green spots. As the bacteria progresses, the spots turn dark-brown to black and with raised, cracked,
its really hot outside where i live and it seems to slow the spread of the problem iset one out side and kept one inside and the inside plant got worse and i see no new damage on the outside ones but it gets to about 105 outside and its only getting hotter but the plant seems to like it she looks happy new dark green growth reaching outward
Uh oh.
This is interesting; have a gander:
Recognizing Tomato Problems
Bacterial canker? Ow.
Okay, I'm not sure if Serenade is effective against bacterial disease as it is against fungus, assuming that is even your main problem. I don't know much about bacterial infections of plants; I'll tell you what I personally would do if I saw that set of symptoms in my gardens:
1. Give a treatment of Serenade right away in case it is fungal
2. Give a foliar feed of CalMag Plus and a potassium supplement (PK13/14 adn other high P and K products are meant as a bloom blaster, but I have used them against deficiencies when I don't want to add other stuff to a mix) mixed at half strength
3. Check drainage in all pots; drill extra holes if you even suspect that it is impeded
4. Check soil runoff pH and flush to adjust if it is off. Add some Serenade and a little grow fert to the final flush solution.
This is for all the plants, not just the pot. Tomatoes and peppers like plenty of calcium too to avoid blossom end rot. So do all types of vine vegetables like squashes and zucchinis.
Good luck, sorry I can't be more help.
Edit:
REading the conditions under which blossom end rot (sign of Ca def in fruiting plants) occurs includes very hot weather during blossom set combined with changes in water quality and Ca becoming unavailable. Interesting. No matter what, I would definitely start putting your whole garden on a calmag supplement in their feed, and next year work some extra lime into the soil.
thanks as always stinky your opinions are much appreciated. i wish someone who has had similar problem would see this
i have 4 plants on the same schedule water feed etc. and only two contracted this prob dark soft spots that turn brown and fall apart so im leaning awy from nute def although i will try your recommendations
I know this is an old thread, but did you ever figure out for sure what was causing this? Because I have the same thing going on right now. Did you correct the problem you had? Do you remember how you fixed it?
Thank you for the help.
i ended up setting them out side and they started to show nice new growth which caused me to think it was room related so i wiped everything down with a 10% bleach solution ( walls, growmedia) and added much more air circulation and reintroduced them to the room after most infected areas got trimmed, some was left as not to take over 1/3 of the plant until i felt enough new growth was there to finish the job
