My earlies are developing more symptoms, but there isn't a trace on anything else.

I had a quick walk today on site and nearly all the toms are wiped out, even the Italians have lost there's , a lot of the spuds are showing signs, but when I explained to other plotters it was blight they were unconcerned saying that the spuds were just dying off. Well my earlies were already out and nearly eaten, so I've dug out my Charlotte and started on my Kestrels, the stalks still look healthy so I've chopped off the leaves and left a 8 inch stump and will dig some more out tomorrow.   ::)
MAY THE CORN BE WITH YOU.
