Blight!

I pulled up all the tomato plants today as blight is raging through them. We had a very wet start to the summer, which I think was the cause of the problem. I also had all the plants in the same area of the garden, unlike my normal practice of spreading them around.

Our refuse collectors have been on strike so the garden waste bin has not been emptied for some weeks. Fortunately there was still some space so I cut up the tomato plants and put them in the bin.
