Nice video, Scott!

Nice jars of peppers, Hal!

You guys give me a smile all the time. I have a lot of BOTL (leaf) and BOTS (soil).

Scott, the blight, fungus, anthracnose, or other horrid disease almost made me not want to plant tomatoes this year. Had you ask me in December, I would have given a definitive 'no'. The past couple of years it's been horrible. I use Daconil and I sprayed them every 3-4 days in years past, but never could keep up with the eventual onslaught. I've had up to 24 plants in the past and suffered big losses. I use soaker hoses, no smoking near the garden, etc. But, as always, the spring bug bit me and I planted 4 this year. A couple of them got a little brown a month or so in, but I battled back. All in all, everything turned out pretty good. The 4 plants did well. I know you're suppose to rotate tomtoes, as well as most plants, to get away from the stuff, but my garden isn't that big. I'll get a shot of my peppers this weekend. Never had such robust and huge plants. They usually get some type of yellow leaf or leaf roll, but it's been gangbusters this year.
