Two days ago I had to pull my Wes and my Cowlicks after both survived and produced numerous good tomatoes after falling ill to TSWV the first week in June. Hard to believe any plants could survive and almost thrive for that long after being infected. I think they might have made it all the way into the fall if we hadn't had 3 weeks of temps hovering around 100 with humidity to match and no rain. That weather killed some of my very healthy plants. I just couldn't keep them all watered adequately. Of the approximately 15 to 20 plants I lost to TSWV this year only those two survived over one month after showing clear symptoms.
