What does early blight appear like

Johnny's Seeds News said...

Early blight and late blight are 2 separate diseases and they do look different from one another.

Early blight has smaller splotches on the leaves and stems than late blight.

Here's some information about early blight from the Cornell University website
And here is a link to a web page that shows you some good photos of the two diseases, also from Cornell.
