Default Re: Tomatoes

This is intended for Scuba Dave....very impressed with the number of tomatoes you grow. I was just hoping you are aware of the problems of blight remaining in the soil (so don't plant in the same area as previous year), and that most times blight is transferred to plants by rain splashing up from the soil onto plants. Around here, many people plant tomatoes under some sort of plastic structure, both to hasten ripening by trapping heat, and to reduce the chance of blight splash. Regardless, hope this is the year that breaks your bad luck streak with the "maters".
