The last three days we have had constant rain nearly all day and night. I went out this morning and looked over what is left of my garden and was even more disappointed than I thought I would be. Many of my peppers have dropped nearly all their leaves and the new growth is showing the final stages of BLS. It is just a matter of time now til all my bell peppers are in trash bags headed for the dump. I am still researching bells that are resistant to BLS but have not found any that are really able to withstand its effects in a rainy year like this one has been. Of all the varieties I planted I must say that Red Bull looks like it has resisted the onslaught of BLS better than any of the other but even it is looking pretty bad right now.
