Pulled up a Solar Fire tomato plant on Saturday. It was across the mulch path from the magnolia stump, just a bit towards the front walk. I should have taken a photo first but I was sick and didn’t even think of it. First, a couple branches started wilting during the day and then perked back up at night. Watering it didn’t seem to help. Then it rained 2″. Two days later the entire plant wilted. Most of the leaves were green and healthy when they wilted but some of the bottom leaves had turned yellow. There was a brown lesion on the stem where it met the soil. There was a tiny hole in the same area as the lesion that looked like it could have been from a borer insect. The various sexual problems, which are common among men, are lack of desire, ejaculation problems,infertility, erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation treatment in India at viagra in canada a competitive price. Get Informed about the Condition Erectile Dysfunction is a common sexual trouble, faced by a large number of individuals sufferings from this trouble, medical expertshave come up with numerous ED medications that include, Kamagra(Sildenafil), levitra side effects (Verdenafil) and Silagra, amongst others. Many women trust this blend of herbal ingredients like discount viagra safed musli, ashwagandha and saffron. Since erectile dysfunction is often caused by bad lifestyle habits that can be changed here are the findings levitra from canada with a little education and encouragement. But, when I pulled the plant up and cut the stem open I couldn’t find any sign of a borer or the hole leading any deeper into the stem. What I think is the vascular tissue was brown and continued up the plant a bit. The roots looked white and healthy. The massive wilting occurred two days after we got 2″ of rain. It’s June so of course it’s hot. All these things seem to point to Fusarium or Verticillum Wilt. The odd thing is Solar Fire is meant to be resistant to Fusarium and Verticillum wilt. Oh confusion. Any other ideas or things I should look for or consider?
