RomanX · December 27, 2015

Last year was my first year growing tomAtoes and I didn't know to expect ANY kind of diseases etc. I admit I am rAther a "helicopter" grower, spending anywhere between 3 and 5 hours every day tending and inspecting my eight tomatoes plants. Last year,all my plants were healthy, green, bushy and happy One day. . . the next morning when I went out to tend them, they were NOT! Horrible big black splotches on ALL the stems, brownish dead looking leaves: the Late Blight had struck overnight!

I HAD no warning.

So this year, I want to be pro-active. I don't want to watch my beauties die a long, slow death ever again!
