No matter how careful I am, something is always missing or labeled wrong!

Looks good! Now let’s not mention the B word :)

Good work getting all that done. You have a nice variety planted up and if it is any consolation, I kind of had the same “missing plant” thing myself this spring with a winter squash variety that I was positive I had starts going for and then when I started sorting through my large transplants… were no where to be found. Hmmmm…?!

Let’s hope any breezes blow in the other direction!

In my garden we definitely got temps low enough to kill the spores that were above ground.

Unless of course we have a repeat of that other year. That blight doesn’t overwinter on nonliving matter. So it can be carried over on potatoes left in the ground, but not much else.
