          • A few of my tomatoes from today. They've got blight but arecstill ripening at the minute. So fingers crossed I at least get a decent harvest.

                  The leaves keep getting black marks on them though. I uploaded a couple of photos in my "is this bligh" thread. How long does it take blight to ruin a plant?

                  • I would expect blighted tomato plants to be blackened and dead within 2-3 days from the first symptoms appearing. Its very quick.

                    Fingers crossed for you that it is something else.

                      That does sound promising. Mine have been getting these black marks on the leaves for about 4-5 days but are still perfectly healthy apart from that. Fingers crossed.

                          • Nice little harvest just now...

                            Most of them still need to ripen a little bit on the window sill.

                              • Azoychka was the earliest ripening of my larger tomatoes.
                                Lovely slightly citrus flavour.
