Hi there!! I'm new, please help!!!!

Hi there!

Thanks everyone in advance for your help. Glad I found a good gardening forum!!

To start in from southern Ontario.

I have two questions, cherry tomatoes issues, and weird bug eggs!!!

What's wrong with my cherry tomatoes, and what type of insect eggs are these???

Thanks!

I'm guessing, but I think they are eggs of a moth.You have some holes in your leaves. See if you can find the caterpillar under them and get rid of the eggs.

Yeah desperately laid cluster eggs like those are almost always bad news. A little water might be enough to get them off or put soapy water on fingertips and rub the netting between fingers a little to be sure to kill them.
