    We were hit with late blight in 2009 as well. Here is my cussed-filled rant (proceed with caution if you are easily offended): http://brokenbarn.blogspot.com/2009/08/dear-home-depot-walma...

    OMG! You were very upset weren't you? Understandably so. I only harvested 6 or 7 of my heirloom tomatoes from 09's late blight infested crop!

    That's the way the cookie crumbles sometimes.

    I was a tad upset lol. Keeping my fingers crossed this year- so far so good! I have grown to really loathe big box stores and this is but one of the reasons.
