Yes so far I'm blight free, but lots of mildew on the peas (still taste good), also on the the cucurbits plants. Ho hum :-\.

I found that courgettes respond quite well to having all the mildewed leaves stripped off.....all of them! Then give the plant a good feed and water and usually if there is enough good weather left it takes off again.

I don't know about cucs but dying leaves are just a drain on the plant.
