OK, so this is a saladette tomato plant store-bought at this size I’ve only had it, today will be the third day and just since this morning I have noticed some kind of white powdery texture on some of the leaves. This morning, the leaves looked a little wrinkly, but it’s much worse this evening It almost looks like overspray from spray paint, but if I rub it with my finger, it rubs away and the leaves are starting to look almost wrinkly and really dry, and also on one of the leaves there’s discoloration and a spot that looks burnt. I’ve been watering as directed , It’s been getting alot of direct sunlight. I put it in the garage at night with my other seedlings , We don’t keep cars in there. Is there something I need to do or is this tomato plant sick? Please helppp

    It is tricky to tell from these pictures. Could be powdery mildew based on your description (but if so, it is not a bad case of it yet). I also see a bit of what looks like sunburn. I would keep it away from your other plants and bottom water only. If it is powdery mildew you can spray with milk.

    Overall you want to keep your tomato leaves dry as much as possible. ;-)
