Fungus among us [View all]

Hi, my veggies and flowers have shown lots of various signs of fungus this year. We had a long cool spring followed by sometimes daily rains. I'm about to pull out my tomatoes. But there is rust on my beans (but they don't care) and my very crowded flower beds have many, many brown leaves. Are you having the same troubles? What do you do? I have read for about an hour this morning...baking soda, milk, vinegar, aspirin, compost tea.....the lists goes on and on and into the non-organics which I ignore.
