Default Tomato wilt

G'day Pat

I can sympathise with you because I've had the same problem since moving
to the coast some years ago. Prior to that (when living inland) I grew
tomatoes of every size, shape and colour and never had one ounce of
trouble. Like you, I've tried pots too and that doesn't work for me
either, so I've given up.

Maybe someone will have a miracle cure! We can only hope!!

Every time I've tried to grow Tomatoes the last few years they get that wilt
that starts at the bottom leaves going a brown colour & then within a short
time engulfs the whole plant.
So I decided I would start with a new very large pot, use new topgrade
potting mix, add some blood & bone, use new seeds 'Rouge de Marmand' & put
the pot on the top verandah where no Tomato plants have ever been before &
make sure that nothing from the garden came in contact with the new plants.
Well guess what they grew really well & robust -now have the same disease
again!Any ideas pretty please
