Sorry courgettes.

A good example of that is a neighbour at home who still has a superb
row of tomatoes out in his garden covered in fruit and no sign of
blight (or Bordeaux Mixture). Yet on our allotments a mile or so away
I am the only one with any tomato plants still alive (just) everyone
else lost theirs months ago.

I have exactly the same problem. My problems with spraing and
eelworm are explicable, but I have not the slightest idea why my
garden is a blight trap.

I wonder if a gardener can pick up and carry/transmit spores, disease or
parasites and such on their clothing or even on the bodyhair, and carry
them to the garden. Sort of cross contamination. The reason why I wonder
about this is because my vegetable garden is the only one I know of for
a mile or two, and I keep on getting different pests and diseases year
after year. This year it is the gooseberries, which have been here in
this garden for 40 years(so I am told) without any problems.
Then comes mildew 3 years ago and this year sawfly. I havn't been able
to grow any veg this year, but next year I know that there will be some
insect or infestation to burst my balloon.
