Potato blight - luck?
« on: August 30, 2007, 20:26:29 »
Hi,

Another question on blight - sorry!  My potatoes are up and looking good at the moment with no signs of blight.  Do I leave them or spray them as a preventative measure?  I don't know what to do for the best!

Thanks

I've been lifting all week... ones I left in the ground when I chopped the tops off, I don't spray mine but leave to dry for a couple of days on the bedroom floor before putting in sacks in the shed..

some bedroom  :o

please don't spray especially when there's no need to, keep harvesting and store (dry them off and check all are good) or eat
