So first time poster and grower, also I have to mention I'm in SW France otherwise you're going to find this question quite confusing.
Growing tomatoes organically and outside so far its gone brilliantly (because it hasn't actually rained here continuously for the whole summer). But next week its forecast to rain basically non-stop until the forecast runs out so I'm worrying about my tomatoes getting blight. In the short term I've already had a great crop, I've dried some etc so if they all got blight and died now it wouldn't be the end of the world but what concerns me is I get blight on my plot does that make it more likely to come back the following year? Because if it does I'll just take them out, but if it doesn't I'd like to chance it because there is potentially a few more weeks of cropping to go if it stops raining after the week.
Anyway my apologies for posting the sort of 'problem' that i'm sure you'd all love to have.
