I need help with identifying what this is that my poor cherry tomatoes is experiencing! These white spots just appeared about a week ago and now they are spreading so fast.

Sorry i have no idea!! Have you looked for pests? If not get your magnifying glass out. Or it could have some sort of disease 🤔

Yeah, I haven’t seen any sign of pests. Thinking maybe it fungus or just maybe sun burn?

I’ve learned a lot from the Planta AI Doctor, although it’s just a bunch of wild guesses I’ve still learned a lot that I never knew before. You might send it some photos and see what it says.

That is a very good point! Thank you for reminding me

When mine look like this I cut those leaves off and more grow. But that me and my tomato plants
