Topic: Potato Blight

[rainbowdonegal]

Hi can anyone tell me if potato blight can affect other plants as we had it recently.  Burned all matter but were wondering if we could reuse the bed for something else or if you have to leave it for a while.

As far as I know ( very little) you are okay to carry on planting as long as it's not the same family.i,e pots or toms ,We have
put cabbages and lettuce in.

It only affects the one family, ie potatoes, toms (usually outdoor ones) and aubergines, if you're growing them outdoors.
