What dangers should I be on the lookout for in Vancouver, BC?

johnnytwofingers · May 16, 2012

I'm very new to growing tomatoes and in reading the forums it seems like there are many pitfalls that can befall even experienced gardeners.

I'm growing in Vancouver, BC which is a very humid climate, but not overly warm. Are there any most likely ailments that I should know how to recognize? A lady was chatting with at the store said she had a problem with blight, and recommended covering my plants with plastic at night. Does this seem reasonable? Anything else I should be looking at for (specific or not specific to my climate?)
