Could it be 'Greenback'?

[TheNovice]

One of the drawbacks of forums and books is that many people new to growing feel that they have to have every disease and pest known to man affect their crops. Greenback will only show up on a red tomato and even when I have had greenback it has not affected me using the tomatoes. Try to enjoy your growing experience and less thinking doom and gloom.

Apologies if i have offended you in my ignorance-this is why i signed up to the forum in the first place, as i really have no experience at all of growing and have learned alot already from what i have read. i do agree with you that if you took note of everything you read in books, nobody would dare grow a thing!

When I first stated growing things[30 odd years ago] my plants had every pest and disease known to man.
Now I just let them get on with it unless I know for certain there is something wrong.
Its the same as anything all down to experience.!

Ha- I have the opposite approach to not knowing what I'm doing. My motto is "It's OK, don't worry - everything will be fine!"

Course that hasn't stopped the peas going yellow, the lettuce and salad all going to seed, the blackfly eating everything, the caterpillars eating the brassicas or the slugs eating whatever they dare... but you can't win'em all and - hey presto - it is fine cos we're eating veg!! And I've discovered that rocket flowers are yummy
