Fungicide sprays work great for leaf spot. I particularly recommend Green
Light "Fung-Away"; it goes on clear and works at least as well as anything.
Ortho products and Daconil-type fungicides always seem to leave chalky brown
waterspots, probably from a talc base. Try 2 or 3 applications about a week
apart. Leaf spot is worst if you use overhead watering. Always trim off
all infected leaves completely before spraying, and wash the clothes you
wore in the yard when doing the trimming before wearing them out there
again.
