Can anyone tell me what is causing the rusty brown color spots on the long bean plant? I tried cleaning it but it doesn't rub off. I see tiny black spots on the bottom side too. How can I get rid if it? Should I remove all of the affected leaves?

The Sage is the worst. I purchased these plants two weeks ago, from a department store. I grow my garden on my balcony, and need all the plants to be healthy. I have a semi "green thumb", and can, and will, do what I can to save them, if you tell me how. Thank You
