Default Potato Blight?

I hate to put a damper on things but if they survive the next few cold
nights they'll be very brave potatoes, blight or no blight. It can do no
harm to pick off the infected parts as there isn't really any alternative
I suppose. Good luck




Me likewise !
Are these spuds indoors (greenhouse etc) or outdoors ?
If the latter then I would dig them up p.d.q. and cut my losses -
remembering to plant earlier next year !

I planted mine earlier this year, Other years at least I have avoided
the dreaded blight! This may well be my last year of planting "Xmas"
spuds! :-(
