Well, that sounds a lot easier. I may yet yield to temptation.

I can recommend them (PFA, that is).

So far (fingers crossed), I haven't had a blight problem. I grow all my
potatoes in huge tubs, which seems to make them very clean soilwise,
slugwise and disease-wise. Hopefully, I can also cultivate PFAs without
problems. I'll read up on them. Thanks for your advice.

Blight is airborne, so tubs aren't relevant. But they could help
against many other things.

I knew it was airborne, but thought it could also be soilborne, too.
Either way, if I grow PFA it will be in tubs
