I have had a vegetable garden for a long time, and this year for the first time it looks like my tomato plants are suffering from leaf curl. After googling for it, I am more confused than ever. Looks like there are many different forms and causes. I suspect my plants might actually be suffering from 2 different types. My 2 cherry tomato plants were both affected; one I have ripped out because it was stunted and had quit growing. I noticed white flies on these plants early on (I've had white flies on occasion, but never this early in the year); I used an Ortho spray, but apparently was too late, if that was the source of the problem. I bought these 2 plants at a local Ace Hardware store. I have a feeling they may have been doomed from the start.
Two other plants (sun early) I bought from a local farmer market, where I have bought plants in the past. These started looking odd shortly after I planted them - the leaves were oddly curled. And unfortunately 3 other tomato plants that I had purchased from yet another market, and which were quite healthy (and planted slightly earlier) now have new leaf growth that is curled. The 2 sun early tomatoes I have also removed.
Not sure if it matters, but my cherry tomatoes are in a separate plot about 25 feet away from my regular tomatoes.
So, my questions:
Is there any cure for this (assuming it's viral, not caused by environmental stress)?
Will the existing blossoms and fruit survive?
Will I get any more blossoms or fruit, or are my remaining plants doomed as well?
If I plant any new tomatoes, will they just come down with the disease as well?
