Kenya, did you figure out what it is? How are your plants doing?

I meant to tell you earlier, especially since you're not far from me -- I've had botrytris on my tomato plants (recognize it from on roses in the past, where it will cover the blossoms). I have never had anything other than dark grey fuzz on stems. The leaves wilt in a way that looks kind of like the pictures I've seen of late blight, dark and watersoaked looking, no visible fungus on the leaves that I can see, and nothing on the fruit. Stem doesn't get lesion-y until the fuzz progresses pretty seriously or I kill off the active fuzz, in which case exposed stem will have brown marks.
