Allotments 4 All

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.

Only got one pic Tim?  ???

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.
