I was at the site yesterday and some-one casually mentioned there was blight in the potatoes.  Fortunately I only had earlies so no panic for me     this time,  BUT this is my first year growing and reading these posts it seems like a big deal  as this the plant equivalent  of a  communicable disease - how do other sites make people aware, is there any requirement to notify of blight, central national register etc?  could it be mistaken and how do you check / get it tested?

This thread and the links therein should just about cover everything.

I've lost track of how many threads we've had about blight this year.

If you want to read more - do a forum search on blight. There's only 40 pages of results!
