Relatively new (I'm in my 50s) to the world of plants, veg growing, garden design & creating. Can also be occasionally coming up with woodwork ideas (no good at the practical side, though) & in the greenhouse. Oh, I also help my Dad in their garden.

Fruits just need to ripen, so I'd take off the closest leaves to let the sun onto them. The plants will be finished soon anyway. Then bin instead of compost.

That's a bit of nitrogen deficiency showing up. There are different opinions about removing leaves. Some ppl say it helps tomatoes to ripen because they get more sun. Others say the leaves produce the energy and the sugars for the tomatoes. Personally I don't remove leaves. 🌱 >
Show PostIf you are feeding regularly then there shouldn't be any issues with patches. We sometimes forget how hungry veg plants can be.

That is anthracnose. It's a very common fungal disease. Sterilize your tools when working between plants. Remove the bad leaves, stems, and fruit (don't compost them), improve air circulation, treat with a fungicide. You might have to remove plants to stop the spread.

Could it be bacterial speck?
