Oh I do know that. It doesn't mean I can't get verticillium wilt or
Fusarium wilt but by choosing plants that are not so susceptible, I do
try to avoid it.I don't pretend to cure all or even avoid all but the

harming my animals or any that might find their way into the garden.
That is much more important to me than a prize bloom or bumper harvest.

I agree. But my point was that your approach has damn-all to do
with the fact that you haven't had blight.

It MIGHT have something to do with rust reduction, but even that's
pretty implausible.
