Topic: Now I'm REALLY p****d off

[angle shades]

 :( just a mini rant,

Like many folk I've lost pretty much everything on my plot due to flooding,

my saving grace was my beloved tomatoes in the greenhouse

today they have blight >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:(

i didn't think it was normal to get blight on greenhouse toms..we've never had it, thank goodness
anyone else?

[angle shades]

 :)neither did I but Tim did a thread on fumigation last year which got quite heated  ;D and it came up then,


what can I do?

my mistake was keeping the window open whilst we are having torrential rain, I was trying to get air circulation/ shades x

Oh dear shades, sorry to hear about your toms - isn't this year a right pig?  We've only just started our plot thisyear, but have already pretty much lost everything - to say i'm depressed is an understatement  ::)

[angle shades]

 :)bless you Kitten,

I thought the worst of the flooding was over on Friday , the river had gone down etc , but today plot worse than ever,

I t could be worse we have been on a flood warning for over a week, :(( I  would
rather lose my plot than my house)

Take care Kitten and don't give up, next year has to be better doesn't it? ::) / shades x

[flossie]

I have a few plants at home, if you want any PM

Oh Shades how sad!!

i am sending you a cyber hug !!

[asbean]

A big cyberhug from me too to everyone who has lost everything (or anything). When I look at our plot, which is all green and nothing else, with slugs and snails running around as if they own the place, I think of all those people who have worked their socks off and had the whole lot washed away.  Soul destroying. My thoughts go out to you all.

 :) thank you/ shades xx

[saddad]

Snap Shades but only on an outdoor basket one so far......
 :-[

[angle shades]

almost everyone on our lottie site has got blight in the greenhouse, or toms in greenhouse under water :(

still theres always next year, touch wood :)/ shades x

[flossie]

am really sad as they were the special plants that i got from Simpsons
Summer will not the the same without our own toms >:(

[MrsKP]

Summer ???   :P

No sign of blight here ............. yet ........ but no sign of toms either !

Well, I think I can find 3 fruit.  Might brave the elements in a mo and see if I can spot any more.

I really do feel for you if you are losing you toms too Shades, I keep trying to think of the day when we look at our green plots again and say to a newbie" I remember the year when!!!" XX Jeannine

There have been a few blight warnings here but I don't think my toms will come to much anyway. The greenhouse ones have been neglected and the outdoor ones don't seem to be growing at all.
