Might be Early Blight a fungal disease. Best is to spray with Daconil Folks, My tomatoes look sickly. I have planted 3 Roma plants and 3 Celebrity. All the plants have tomatoes on them but all the lower leaves (and some upper branches) have turned yellow, then brown and died. I'm pulling the dead stems off and all the tomatoes look fine but I'm wondering what's wrong. STacey in DC
