I have lost all of my plants to tomato blight, is there anything I can do?

Our Advice:

It is too late for this year so remove and dispose of the infected plants making sure to clear away any dead leaves and plant debris. Next year your best option is to grow cultivars which offer some resistance to this disease, such as; Crimson Crush and Mountain Majic for growing inside, or Lizzano and Losetto for outdoors.
