	I have examined your digital images for possible diagnosis of your plant
problems.  Images 011-015 (all tomato) seem to exhibit symptoms of virus
disease--very likely one or both of the geminiviruses vectored by
whiteflies.  Both these viruses are very damaging to commercial production
and urban gardening in Florida.  There is no curative measure that you can
apply once a virus disease has occurred--except roguing the plants and
destroying them.  The whiteflies carry the virus for their lifespan (25-30
days).  The last image (eggplant) provided insufficient information to me
to even make a guess.  I could not discern any clear symptoms.  Please
understand that digital diagnosis is in it's infancy.  Plants can exhibit
only a finite number of symptoms to an almost infinite number of plant
pathogens, environmental, and cultural factors.  My diagnosis is an
educated guess.  If you desire accuracy, the core laboratory of the Florida
Extension Plant Disease Clinic identifies the geminiviruses at the DNA
level at a fee of $40.00.
