Default okra leaves

this showed up after the recent cold front. Temps didnt get much below 50 but it brought some high wind and rain with it, nearly laid the plants over. Im thinking that it was just the colder weather and the plant responded to it as I remember last year in the fall, the plants reacted similiar with the first cold front. Seemed to bring almost a halt to harvest last year. Anything I need to be worried about enough to pull and start new ones? Your thoughts appreciated, especially those of the experienced okra growers. All the plants have the same spots even the 2 inch Clemson spineless that I was testing germination on

Thats LA green velvet leaves.

I would pick off the leaves and spray with Daconil just in case.

I sprayed with Daconil this morning, guess I will pick off the leaves tomorrow. Thanks Worth, and it is indeed LGV

Worth, Should I drink a beer before or after I pick off the leaves? I wouldnt want to make a mistake on something so critical.
