Disease Resistant/Mildew Resistant Tomato
Just beginning to think about this year & how to prevent the problems that I
have been having in my greenhouse. For the last 2 years I have had a poor crop of tomatoes due to disease / mildew. I suspect that the disease problem has been passed on by greenfly in the form of a virus. In an effort to counteract this can anybody suggest a couple of greenhouse tomato varieties (must have a reasonable taste) that would be more resilient. My last 2 years varieties were Alsa Craig, Alicante & Tumbler. Many thanks Steve |

Try disinfecting the greenhouse thoroughly - glass, structure and soil with Jeyes Fluid, don't rinse it down afterwards, then grow your Ailsa Craig (lovely tomato), Alicante and whatever else in gro-bags. Keep well ventilated as tomatoes prefer dryish air, but you could cover the vent(s) and door aperture with plastic flyscreen mesh to reduce the risk of aphids getting in. -- Rusty Open the creaking gate to make a horrid.squeak, then lower the foobar. http://www.users.zetnet.co.uk/hi-fi/ |
