Blight?

[philona]

Hi all,

Completely new here, I have one question - is this blight?

My knee-jerk reaction was "yes", but somehow it doesn't look right.

If anyone can put me right I would be extremely grateful.

My first guess is septoria leaf spot. It often starts with little spots that then spread and merge together to form larger areas of infection. Clean off the bad leaves, don't let any stay on the soil and disinfect your tools to keep it from spreading.

Not the Blight we have around here at all. It looks totally different. I have never seen that. Perhapse a form of Rust?

Very odd. Two days later and the some of the leaves are withering, dry as a Ryvita and turn to dust when squeezed.
