I'm looking for some input in trying to identify an issue that has appeared over the last 3 days on my 845. The first 5 leaves on the plant are showing rusty, spotted blemishes between the leaf veins. There was no evidence of this 3 days ago. All other leaves out to 8' appear fine. The hoophouse has been closed up for 3 days as we went from 85 to 50 degrees for 3 days with rain and drizzle.
Picture of the most severe leaf can be seen here: http://s6.invisionfree.com/MEPGO/index.php?act=Attach&type=post&id=2306223
Any input would be appreciated. Thanx gang...

Looking at all the disease pics it doesn't look like disease but more of a nutrient deficiency. Potassium difiency is the first thing that comes to mind as it was a little lower than I would have liked or perhaps magnesium is locked up. I'll listen to any and all ideas.

Nothing but seaweed, 7 days ago, in a cleaned sprayer.

Bill,
Check out the three pictures that I posted in the photo gallery about two weeks ago. Does it look anything like your problem?

Thanx Martin but that doesn't look like what I have going here.

Bill,
Check the udersides of the leaves for mites. Do this by tapping the leaf's midvain while holding a sheet of white paper under the leaf. Then sit there like a fool staring at the paper for a minute. You're looking for small dots that move.
