Blight Control
Today, I fired the first round - or so I thought - in the battle with blight. Doused the tomatoes with fungicide, put down some landscape fabric around them, and snipped off any leaves that were touching the ground or even thinking about touching the ground. I only thought that I was firing the first round because I had not closely examined the plants; I thought I was making a pre-emptive strike; in truth, the blight was one step ahead of me. Some of those lower leaves that I cut off were already looking yellow and sickly. It's a good thing I struck when I did.
Watch it rain tonight or tomorrow and wash off the fungicide. :-\
