toms

Can't identify that mould? Got a great tip for keeping slugs at bay? Suggestions for organic weed control? Post them here...

My outdoor tumbler toms have fallen to potato blight.
I'm not sure exactly what this is. Is it a virus or mould? I cannot burn the plants, but would it be possible to compost them?

Hello Submariner

I would never consider composting any material affected by the dreadful potato blight fungus; unfortunately the only safe way I know is to burn any blighted plants.

Cheers Barney. I thought that that was the only answer, but, burning is not allowed here!
