Hi everyone, let me start by saying that we don't have much experience growing tomatoes; this is only our 3rd year and it has so far been our most successful. However, today I noticed that the leaves on one plant (variety unknown as DH threw out tags) were turning yellow with dark spots, and two branches toward the bottom of the plant had completely shriveled and died. Some kind of fungus? I cut off all the offending branches. There is some fruit toward the top of the plant but it doesn't seem to be flowering as well as the plants on either side of it (we only have 3). Is there anything I can do? TIA!
