potato leaf v's regular leaf

Volvo · April 16, 2007

Would it be just my growing lot that sees my Tommies hit with foliar yellowing more so with the pot leaf varieties than the regular leaf???..
Maybe just more surface area with the pot leaf varieties to get infected or maintain moisture??..
Have allready started with disposing of some yellow leaves lower down the plant from my Stump of the World varieties and have cut back watering to them..
So far so good and all the rest are okay...
Missus has been trying to tell me that maybe i have laid out too much hay/mulch around the base of the plants which is holding too much moisture...
Shouldnt be the case as have always done this

...
Do stick ye ole finger in the ground adjascent to the plant as a tell tale see if the soil wishes a drink first too

..
Maybe need a longer finger see how moist it is further down
