| I have about 6 different varieties of tomatoes growing and they ALL have this problem. We have had an unusually wet spring.
Is this early blight? What can I do to save them? They have just started to blossom. |

| Looks like late blight to me, seeing as it appears to be on the stem also. EB usually expresses with yellowing around a bullseye-shaped mark. May be too late. |

| It just started as brown specks on the plants a few days ago. It is primarily on the bottom leaves but some of them have some discoloration all the way up. Some of the leaves are just all yellow. I am going to try pruning and a fungicide. We had an unusually wet, cool spring but it is hot and dry now. I am up for any other ideas as this is my entire crop. Thank you. |

| Well, it seems I just got my answer. Bonnie Plants has recalled $1M of plants due to late blight. Google "Bonnie Plants late blight" for more than you would ever want to know about this disaster. |
