Thanks for the advise. Before the suggestion about the bleach, it was threatening with more cold rain. So we picke five, five gallon buckets of tomatoes, mostly all green. So, here we go with all kinds of green tomato recipes. We will try to rippen alot of them off for canned tomatoes.
I looked up why we get LB here over and over. Most give credit to the weather, but also to imported seedlings sold at the box stores. This is my third year in a row to be wiped out by LB. I did buy the Daconil, but am fearful about using it when the fruit is ready to be picked. I have some plants next to a wall, and some next to a hedge row that have not been impacted. This gives credit to the airborn thing.
