# I noticed these spots today. My plant normally has browning tips, but…

_Posted by Lauren on 2026-09-30_

I noticed these spots today. My plant normally has browning tips, but the browning on the sides is new and worrisome. The soil is totally dry the pot has drainage. Any ideas what is going on? I was working with tomatoes that had blight, tomato spotted wilt virus, verticilium, bacterial leaf spot, and more yesterday at work. Could i have somehow gotten my plant sick in less than 1 day?
