    Are your tomatoes doing ok? That looks like tomato blight on them.

      Honestly no idea, just an experiment. They’ve had too much light, my pump timer was off, and I’ve had to rip the roots apart to move them.

      Any advice would be appreciated, I’m gonna get a trellis though.

        Looks like it has the blight but without physically being there i’m not 100% sure. Personally I’d err on the side of caution and dose them with some fungicide. Blight starts with the bottom leaves and works its way up which was my initial clue that this may be blight.

          I’ll read up on it thanks! I need to clean up the leaves that are dying from the other issues still which may make it look better?

          I’ve got some safers, but I think it’s an insecticide, I should grab some stuff for the outside garden anyways I guess.

          Got any recommendations?

            There are a bunch of different treatments depending on how much you want to remain organic or not. I can’t really recommend any since it will depend on how you want to treat the problem. Since it’s a fungus you’ll need to do preventative measures in order to make sure the disease doesn’t come back as well as treat the plants with a fungicide. You can get fungicides that are straight chemical, ones that are metal based, or ones that use germs to kill the fungus. Just make sure you do a little research beforehand and choose a food safe fungicide and follow the directions.

              Appreciate it, will do my own research no issue there growmie.

              I do already use hydroguard in the water to help prevent issues in the reservoir. Sounds like something I’ll hit up the local hydro shop for at least.
