    I cut back the tomatoes and sprayed them with peroxide solution yesterday. We'll see. Nothing to lose, they were dying anyway. If I can keep them alive that would be great.

    It sound like blight, and it's hard to stop. The solution does appear to slow it down for me.
    We seem to get it every year, even after changing out the soil. Last year it spread to our young lilac bush, but it survived. From what I had read last year I thought it might be fungus, so I sprayed with vinegar. It didn't save the tomatoes, but may have saved the lilac.

    Blight is a fungus that comes from the soil.
    The ones I have in planters this year don't have it. What kind of soil did you use
