Broad beans, what is it?.

Ok, guys & gals,


I've read the posts on broad bean problems, and I'm wondering if this is "Rust"? or "Choc spot"?.

This is the 3rd sowing so far, the first 2 sowings were great, but I popped another row in just for the last crop. Everything went well, they came through in a very short time, grew well, I pinched the tops out a week or so.

Now the other day I noticed an odd brown spot on one plant....now less than a week most of the others have the same....so my questions are, is it the above?? & what can be done, if anything, is it down to the time of planting?

 

Its probably rust, they usually get it late in the season, best to just dig them out and stick to the earlier sowings in the future.
Rust usually rubs off and leaves a stain on your fingers.

 

Cheers Pete, a lesson learned.
