Hi Misty, thanks for the garden compliment. I love the way it looks right now as a result of our cooler temps and rather heavy rainfall. My tomatoes have not been hit with blight, which is rather surprising because I do have an overhead sprinkler, as opposed to a soaker hose, and we live in a very humid climate. I do believe that the blight spores stay in the soil for a bit, so all the more reason to rotate your crops. Buying blight resistant strains is another suggestions. Here’s a link to a discussion about those strains. http://www.growveg.com/growblogpost.aspx?id=334

I also read about a baking soda and an aspirin spray that may be helpful, but don’t have any concrete experience with the. One last piece of advice, make sure your soil is healthy by getting it tested and amending it as necessary. We’re big believers in compost tea for healthy soil.

Cheers! Lynn

Do your tomatoes ever get hit with blight? If so, how do you fix it? We caved in the summer and used a spray, but I’d love to use something organic or homemade instead!

I just had my one, singular strawberry eaten by something and my heart was broken. Definitely going to plant some of these to see if it helps!
