Geography of Early Blight

Labradors2 · September 8, 2015

I am also interested in breeding for Early Blight resistance.

Please let me know:

1. Where you grow tomato plants

2. Whether you grow in pots or in the ground

3. If you get Early Blight

4. How severely your plants are effected, and how it ranks, compared to other problem diseases your plants get.

5. Whether it is a persistent problem, or an occasional problem for you (or not a problem at all)

==========

1. Ontario, Canada

2. Pots, with fresh potting mix every year and in the ground. It definitely comes in on the wind and the dew. Pots are brought under an awning to keep the rain off them.

3. EB every year

4. It doesn't affect yield of indeterminates

5. Persistent problem despite removal of lower leaves early and diseased leaves as they appear
