    Hi, first time tomato grower and have found small brown spots on four young tomatoes. Have another 70 or so that look fine. Lower leaves had yellowed and I removed them, but wondering if this is blight?

    Attached is a photo of some leaves removed, and one of the tomato spots.

    Thanks for any advice, the top of the plants look very healthy and a ton of blooms.

    not sure about the spots on the fruits, could be any of a variety of things at this stage but probably not blight....the yellowing of the lower leaves is normal as the plant is continously making new leaves and the lower/older leaves tend to get less nutrients as a result - blight will be fairly unmistakable,blackening and curling of the leaves progressing quickly to the fruits which will rot on the vine:(
