Tomato pests and diseases

Typically, no sprays are required for our tomatoes but the Tomato Hornworm can sometimes be a problem. Remove easily by hand by looking for missing leaves and stems at the tops of each plant and large, dark droppings on leaves. Otherwise, spray with Green Step II™ Caterpillar Control. For areas with high incidents of Septoria Leaf Spot and Blight, try our preventative spray, Soap-Shield™ Flowable Liquid Copper Fungicide.
