Is this little thing really what's destroyed my gardens?

Naysen and Ivan,

I haven't had time to keep up with your experiment but will put this thread on my winter reading list - lots of great info here I need to absorb!

Naysen, great to see the lab came through with a diagnosis. I hope they can determine the V race for you.

Ivan, as usual, very helpful info. Thanks.

I have one question (even though the answer may be somewhere in this thread already, I have only skimmed): It seems widening the watering zone to 1 foot on each side of the plants would encourage root growth into untreated (and infected) soil. Maybe this was meant to be a general recommendation and not specific to this experiment?

I'm looking forward to future chapters!
Steve
