The Blight of Blight

[Oola]

Hands up if your tomatoes have blight!

Tried to grow tomatoes on the deck this year Oola and yes, they have tomato blight.

No, I have had such a good bumper crop this year. I have made tomatoe soup and lots of tomatoe ketchup, still got loads left so I am going to make another batch of soup and then the rest will be turn into chutney.

So far no. I'm having a good harvest from my moneymakers. However, three of my bushes have succombed to the poor weather....which usually is the start of the blight. PLUS thousands of spiders are on my bushes this morning. I had to clear away a jungle of cobwebs so that I could walk through the beds.. Do spiders eat tomatoes?

I have no idea - although I found some woodlice chomping their way through one of my blighted tomatoes. Was surprised to see that!
