There are various tomato leaf blights and curing them is not easy. A couple of examples are as follows:
Symptoms: Older leaves develop dark spots with concentric rings. The remainder of the leaf turns yellow and leaves will probably die off before their time, leaving the fruits exposed to the full heat of the sun. This tomato disease is known as Early Blight and recurrence can be prevented by copper and/or sulfur sprays
Symptoms: Strangely shaped grey spots will appear on the leaves which will turn papery in texture and later a circle of white mould may surround the spots. Black areas appear on stems and the fruit may develop similar spots to the leaves. This is Late Blight which can also affect potatoes and is extremely infectious.
