10) 2015 other resistant varieties to the late blight.

I sowed and crashed the other resistant varieties to the late blight this year to have more points of comparison.

It would seem that the young plants of resistant varieties in the late blight are often enough darkened near the solar not exposed to the light sheet.
It does not maybe mean that they have a blue gene but that there is a reaction towards the light.

In 2016, it will be necessary to photograph all the young plants and the cotyledons of all the sowing and to compare their colors to know if it is an indication of presence of blue gene or reactivity towards the sunlight.

All the varieties tested in 2015 very well resisted to the late blight but Skykomish is very very late.
