Because you get early blight and late blight and this map shows the risk of late blight?

If the US growers have the same arsenal of chemicals that commercial growers have in the UK they will still have a good crop (although the spuds probably glow in the dark!)  :wacko:

Can't find it now but I did view a website listing all the chemicals available for blight control; there were about 6 categories of control from "preventative" right through to a rapid top-growth killer when all else failed - rather scary!  :ohmy:

Sow your seeds, plant your plants. What's the difference? A couple of weeks or more when answering possible queries!

One of the best things about being an orang-utan is the fact that you don't lose your good looks as you get older
