I recently found red spots or whatever it is attatched underneath my tomato plant leaves, what is it?


Question:

Answers:
It is more than likely red spider mite. They are so small that it is hard to see that they are bugs. You can spray with insecticide or if you don't want to do that just wash with soapy water but that takes a lot of patience! It could also be a disease. Why don't you take a leaf to your local garden centre and get their advice.

Tomatoes like things to be regular, no extremes of heat or cold, regular watering not lots one day and none the next. You should also feed the plants as soon as the flower appear.


little bugs
sounds like this one type of spider bug that i had on mine or seed ticks... i found an organic insecticide at a local garden center that worked fantastic!! check with a local garden center or nursery!!! dont remember the name of the product though?? (wife bought it)
sometimes when there is poor drainage and/or standing
water under the plant, the leave will develop a type of fungus
under the leaves. try not to over water and make sure that there is proper drainage. better to take care of this now before the fruit starts to appear, or it will be damaged.
