Hey fellow gardeners,

I have an issue with my tomatoes this year and not sure what it is. I attached a photo. Other plants also have yellow leaves on the lower branches. Is this the dreaded blight? So far the fruit seem to be ok. Any suggestions on how to treat them instead of throwing them away?

Thank you!

That does not look like blight to me.

That damage looks like a bacterial or fungal disease.

I would suggest trying the sprays found in this thread:
