my tomatoes as it is very contagions.

Just for your information.


I personally know someone who lost a large greenhouse full of young
tomatoes because someone smoked a cigarette in their greenhouse. It was
suspected it was a deliberate thing - neither they nor anyone who works
for them smokes *and* they found the cigarette just inside the door. It
was an expensive bit of nastiness on the part of someone.
