[QUOTE="CottageFarm, post: 1151104, member: 16552"] Yeah, I noticed the yellowing on the beans but it's not severe. Peppers and tomatoes will take a surprising amount of water. The fruit can be damaged but the plants will generally survive. The plants will struggle far more from cold soil than too much water. The tomato that is still alive looks diseased in that pic, but it is too hard to say for certain without a better look at the leaves and stems. There are a number of diseases that will be exacerbated/accelerated by wet leaves, especially if they don't get time to dry out well between rains and conditions are cooler. That may be why it seemed like the rain caused it. If it seemed to come on suddenly, it could well be Early Blight. It's one of the more common tomato problems, and is also one that will accelerate with wet leaf conditions. Alternaria, Powdery Mildew, and Verticillium are also common and seem to accelerate in wet conditions. [/QUOTE]
