Topic: Blight already.... Advice needed please.

[Flunky]

I too have have brown patches I have posted seperately. All I could find in internet is either them dying off or a magnesium defficiency. I am no expert. I dont think its blight and nor did my neighbour who knows a fair bit.

Was up at the lottie last night and thankfully didn't find anything to worry about.  Had more dodgy looking leaves on the broad beans than the spuds, but I sprayed the spuds anyway ..... that's what you're meant to do isn't it ?  Prevention rather than cure ?

Oh and beg your pardon, we've had 5 SPs this month.  It would appear that we had 0 hours of humidity yesterday?  Doesn't feel like it to me.  ::)

On the left, Clanger, Mira. T'other is Rooster.

Also cut down Markes because they were looking very sad. Very bad scab. Never had it before.

Hmmm - just my firsts and seconds dieing back at the moment but I would have thought Mira would put up more of a fight!

See yesterday's post, Dad?

I havent had a full SP warning, only 1 'near miss' warning but my spuds still have blight. :(

Lack of moisture in the soil?

I get light scab quite often on my container grown spuds because they can dry out very quickly.
