Silverbeat with what looks like rust on the leaves

Both the silver beat and spinach I grow has developed a brown colouring on the leaves that looks like rust. What is it and how do I get rid of it?

Hi Deane, Yes it is rust, you can spray with Free flow copper (organic spray) as a preventative (although this doesn’t fix existing damaged leaves).

Thanks the Palmers Team
