I pulled up 4 tomato plants tonight, 2 Brandywines, a Black from Tula, and a Wapsipinicon Peach Tomato. Early Blight came very early, what with the rain and the cold. I was really loooking forward to trying one of those Wapsipinicon Peach Tomatos, too. I probably should have pulled up a yellow current tomato, but it has so many tomatoes starting to show color, I thought I'd try and limp it along. <sigh> Penelope -- "Maybe you'd like to ask the Wizard for a heart."

We've had a bit of a wet summer, more days with rain than without lately. Sprays get washed off about as soon as they're sprayed on. Penelope

Ah, I could have stewed tomatoes! I appreciate that you're trying to help, but mostly I wanted to whine some to someone who wouldn't look at me strangely when I nattered on about things like blights and Brandywines.
