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

Well done. Interesting. I suppose there will be 2 main strategies: to attack the genetic structure of the blight or to genetically modify the spuds. But the whole science is in its infancy and i'm sure I'll be long dead before its applications become common.
