I had Fusarium bad at my old house but have enjoyed being without it the last few years here. We had just talked about adding four more raised beds and I think we'll do that so we can go to a five year rotation instead of a three year. Maybe that will help. And cleaning all the cages and tools really well from season to season to keep it from spreading.



Same here as far as tomatoes go. Horrible tomato weather especially for the larger tomatoes. Danko, Eva Purple Ball and Arkansas Traveler are nice to have in a season like this. Last year had ripe tomatoes on everything at the end of June. This year I still haven't had a ripe Earl's Faux, at least not one that hasn't split, but plenty on the vine. Coastal Virginia Bay Side


Everything else has done fine although everything was few weeks later
