Hello JB, many thanks. I have never had trouble with blight before but did plant potatoes from Dobies myself this year for the first time. They developed problems almost as soon as they emerged from the ground and within hours literally, i had pulled them all up and burned them. The complete devasta...

thanks for getting back to me. I am on my way down to the bonfire with a wheelbarrow piled high with my treasured plants as the aubergines have clearly been effected overnight. If I give the greenhouse a huge washover with jeyes, do you reckon it will be okay for next years crops or as blight is air...

What a disaster!! All my tomato plants effected in just 48 hours. AND in the greenhouse too! My aubergine plants next door are looking very blotchy but the peppers seem okay. I thought it just effected pots and toms. Is anything immune or do I dispair now for all my lovely late summer fruits?

can I put these in the same bed as the ones i harvested earlier in the summer? What should I be adding apart from general compost from the heap?

any ideas? any help much appreciated......

thanks. I'll keep trying. How frustrating! I grew these 6 plants from seed planted indoors in January and loved and cossetted ever since. They are a bit like my children.....loving and totally giving until they are able to actually contribute helpfully then totally disinterested!!!

I know its early days but have you suceeded with the hand pollination. I'm having no luck at all. Each flower goes brown then falls off. I'll give it another go now i've seen this helpful advice but do people think it is now too late to any aubergines to ripen in the greenhouse?
