| Hi all. I am in MA and just planted my tomatoes last Wednesday. My Beefsteak(bought from a nursery) already has something wrong with its lower leaves and seems to be spreading to my other tomatoes; though it is not as bad on those. I'm confused because even though I do have issues with blight and some leaf spot, it usually doesn't strike until after wet weather. Today was the first rain and this problem has been progressing for a few days already. They have already been sprayed with Bonide Copper Sulfate. It seems to keep the fungi in check every year. Picture should be attached. |

| Looks like simple sun damage. That'll probably be the extent of it, and the plants will be fine |

| Ok, thanks for the input. No chance it's fertilizer burn or thrips/some kind of pest? I scratched some fertilizer into the soil on this one for some reason even though this soil probably doesn't need it. |

| Sunburn or burn from your copper sulfate spray probably. It will be fine. |
