shirley tomatos F1

To my knowledge there aren't any tomatoes which are totally blight resistant.

Some claim to have some resistance such as "Ferline" or "Legend" but apparently as with blight resistant potatoes they are not the best tasting.

Shirley is generally a greenhouse tomato but It's got more tollerance of cold than most.

I grow them every year in a polytunnel and the door is never closed at night so you may well be able to grow them outside in a good summer.

You can spray outdoor toms with Dithane 945 to guard against blight if you don't mind spraying. :shock:

I tried them but they got the blight

No problems with planting next year as the Blight spores only overwinter on infected plan material, like tater tubers or Tomato residues, so give the area a good clean up and burn or send any crop residues to the tip and ask if the can go to deep landfill as they are infected.Good luck for 2009

Thanks for all the info, I had read that if you sprayed it could keep blight at bay and I am not above using some stuff if necessary.  I think I planted them a bit too close this year so it spread like wildfire.  Will try again next year and see how I get on.

Thanks for this will try again next year and see how it goes
