So far my few toms. and lots of pots. are clean

This is the only year in the last decade or so I have been clear

However many other disasters I could report

I think it's a bit early yet.
However, have a look at www.bligh****ch.co.uk
You can sign up to get an email when anyone reports blight in your
postcode area. I have already had warnings.
I usually pull or cut off the stems and leaves of my potatoes, leaving
the spuds in the ground for a while. One row already dug.
I have also had blight on tomatoes (outdoors) for about 10 years but
never yet on potatoes as I don't leave them in long enough.

I signed up for their reports, and I've had a few warnings of blight
here in North Cornwall.
