I'm not sure what type of fungus this is but I'm pretty sure I got it by overwatering... the leaves have small brown and white spots, it's only on a few leaves on each plant, not like every leaf is covered in them but I'm trying to learn to how PREVENT, AND HOW TO STOP THIS FUNGUS!

To me, it looks more like a deficiency.. such as calcium. Can you post pics of the whole plant & give more info?
 
Aphids don’t eat leaves they suck the sap from the stocks, could be a different bug or maybe some bird shit or something that burnt the leafs
 
Aphids will cluster on and cause damage to leaves, for sure. They cluster at the base of the leaf, next to the stalk (petiole).


How did you determine you got rid of them?
Well I scope my garden everyday I'd know if I still had bugs I spray 4 times a week def isn't a bug problem , I'm leaning towards a calmag deficiency what queen2green said now that I think of it, it makes sense...

Sure here ya go... it's not like my whole plant is dieing just a few leaves on each plant starting to look like this ...

Thanks, I was just trying to see where it was affecting. It’s does look to me like a calcium issue, if it is not leftover damage from the alphids. Your plants look healthy so lockout is unlikely, prob just hungry for calmag.

I suppose it could be left over damage from the aphids just seems weird tho because it seems to still be spreading...

If you’re scoping the plants daily, roots included, then you are probably fine.

I mention the aphids, because the way they damage the leaves is not always direct. Root aphids in particular will take up residence at the roots and destroy them, causing nutrient uptake issues and deficiencies, and you won’t see a single one on the leaf until they start over growing the roots.

I do agree, latest pics are calcium for sure. And like you said, not much.
 
Been having a lot of rain lately, or have you been watering /spraying them down before the sun comes up or after the sun goes down, especially during high humidity days?
