...on all of the 15 tomato plants I have out in a field and 3 more close to the house in large pots. They are San Marzano Plums and Better Boys.
The damage began at the lower leaves and is moving up. Some of the worst affected plants are 1/3 defoliated already. The tomatoes themselves are fine so far except for some occasional bird pecks and bug problems.
We did get late blight last year from some big box store tomatoes (which got to our potoes too), but this problem looks different. The soil in the pots is not from out there but is from a compost pile about 500' away.
I have a couple of photos here:

I have a feeling I will not be able to do anything about this crop BUT I'm interested any ideas y'all might have.
