Default black spots on my tomato leaves
In article ,
says...

Just got back into gardening after many years of not bothering and grown
my own tomato plants from seeds I probably put them outside a bit too
early (two weeks ago) now I notice the lower leaves have black spots on
them and not looking very good.
I Googled for an answer but I'm not sure I've had the definitive reply
exactly, so far it's only the lower leaves and the plants have started
to grow again after the sudden shock of all that cold rain...are they
doomed do you think?

Are black spots forming on the vines too?

How cold has it been for the past two weeks?

....because it sounds like the "late"(a misnomer) blight came early.
