Chocolate Spot

Most of my pea and bean seedlings have developed chocolate spot. Anybody ever dealt with that before. Since its still early, I'm thinking of replanting.

Apparently it is type of botrytis fungus. Winter crops are more susceptible. Since it is still early, I would probably pull them up and destroy the plants. Do not compost them. Perhaps try giving them a bit wider spacing and trellis them so they get better air circulation.
