Potato Blight
I've searched the internet wide and far for information and pics on this dastardly disease (saw the pics posted on here too). My potato plants have what look like some scorch marks, small round brown spots. I've taken the offending leaves off but I am very paranoid its blight. This is my first time growing tatties and they all came up great, loads of them-in containers and the ground. My question is this; if its blight I know what to do but my plants have flowers about to open. Is there anything I can do to hurry up the tuber growing process in case I need to take all the leaves off in a hurry? I'd hate to lose everything.
Also, my tomatoes are ready to go out. What can I do about these? I don't want to risk losing these as well. I live in SE3 London in case its Blight and spreading.....
Growing veges is not as easy as it seems.......
