No doubt we've all heard the old wive's tale about tomato plants
becoming blighted because their leaves touched the ground. Well, I've
staked my tomato plants every year and they were blighted every year. This
year something else happened. A number of volunteer tomato plants sprang up
where they were planted last year. I did nothing with them. I just let
them crawl across the ground and not one of them is blighted. These are
offspring of plants that were blighted last year and they are growing just
50' from this year's staked (and blighted) plants. So where does blight
come from?
