Tomato Blight can effect other plants in the garden.

Blight can jump to other plants.

We have had no sign of this disease in our garden thank God.  It can jump to pepper plants as well, they make up most of the garden.  Keeping fingers crossed, we harvest this week.  Time to get the peppers soaking.

My sister had a whopping 60 tomato plants in her garden. She said that she had been getting them staked and they were looking wonderful and green and growing well. Well, one week she had a long work week and had a lot of other things to take care of and she hadn't been watching the garden every day like she had been previously. When she finally got time the following week to check on the tomato plants, every single one of them had turned brown and were lying there dead.

We figured that it was probably the tomato blight, as I have seen some badly neglected tomatoes survive just about anything.
