Picked my first red tomato week before last. I have one tomato plant that's a good bit lighter green than the others and looking kind of poorly with one of the main stalks from the ground up drying up. The rest of it is still making decent looking green tomatoes on a couple of other stalks though. The stalk that is drying up stared to get a bunch of tiny little bumps all over it starting at ground level for first four to six inches up then over the next month or so the rest of it gradually wilted and dried up. All the same variety, all planted the same day. Some kind of parasite is the only thing I can think of.
