After having heavy rains and several cloudy days, I noticed alot of my newer leaves had yellow spots on them with small holes in the middle of some of the spots. I treated with fungicide late yesterday and hoping for the best. Not sure what it is, leaf spot, blight or something else. I have posted a picture of it in my diary and would appreciated any help on a diagnosis. Thanks

I can't be positive but it looks like the early stage of anthracnose to me.

Have you sprayed any insecticides recently?

The reason I asked was that is exactly the way some of my leaves looked after using 5% Seven dust. My plants were just starting to vine. They all recovered fine with just a few permanently damaged leaves.

Sounds like it could be anthranose. I ussually have problems later but this year it started early. I started out slow because of it but I started spraying the new leaves every day as they develope. I think I got a handle on it now and they started growing better.
