I now have three pods but they're all tiny skinny little things yet. Is there anything to do to help them bulk up or do I just need to leave them grow a bit more. Hmmm, must run home and consult some books.Moonwaveshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16018956740090192993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4942522681264332044.post-75827430368869453462007-08-07T09:58:00.000+01:002007-08-07T09:58:00.000+01:00Congrats on the red tomatoe, I do a similar dance ...Congrats on the red tomatoe, I do a similar dance when we get them too!<BR/><BR/>The blight ... I've a recent post about what to do.<BR/><BR/>With only small patches of brown, pick off the leaf and burn it, don't compost it (spores). If blight has taken hold badly, as in ours, follow the instructions ref cutting foliage to the ground, leave tubers in ground for 3 weeks, then dig them, clean gently, dry, store in paper sacks, check often.<BR/><BR/>If you'd like to spend a weekend here get in touch, I'm sorry life was so hectic I didn't get around to arranging it in the summer. But you are more than welcome. x<BR/><BR/>www.sallygardens.typepad.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
