Tomatoes - September 26th, 2005 at 11:33 PM
Hello,
I am mostly a vegetable gardener on a 10 acre hobby farm. Most of my crops are fairly successful and I have a freezer full of my harvest to show for it. But the one thing I love to grow the most is the one I have the most trouble with and that is Tomatoes. I have two vegetable gardens and after having blight on my tomatoes 3 years ago I gave that garden a rest as was prescribed. This year I tried to grow tomatoes there again and lo'n behold they had blight again. Even though it was not the weather for blight. It was not write off crop but still it was touched by the disease killing off foilage and leaving black spots on the tomatoes and seriously limiting the harvest. Any tips? Will I never be able to grow tomatoes there again?
