Late Blight On Tomatoes

Many gardeners lost their tomato crop to late blight last season, I have been reading every thing i can find on the subject, unfortunately there's no silver buttet. The most important thing you can do, be alert, be prepared. When you are looking for your plants try to get ones that's shown the most resistance to the fungus ( phytophthora infestans), Which causes late blight. Though no varieties are immune to late blight, Some will stay healthier than others. The early girl will mature before late blight starts so you will get some tomatoes. If i find any thing out later i will post it.
