Controlling tomato diseases will require you to be proactive and apply preventive measures. That is because you cannot stop most tomato diseases after they affect the crop.
Even though there are fungicides and bactericides that can help combat these diseases, they are only truly effective when you apply them as preventive measures.
For organic farmers, there are products such as copper sulfate, which are naturally derived but are still highly toxic. This type of product is only allowed to be used in extreme cases.
In such a case, the organic farmers must report that no other measures have been effective and they are in danger of significant economic losses if the disease were to progress.
Some home made remedies for controlling tomato diseases range from the use of hydrogen peroxide and baking soda sprays to applying a slurry of skim milk or just feeding the plants chamomile tea.
While there may be merit to some of these approaches, waging war with tomato diseases is rarely a winning battle, making prevention techniques the best cure.
