Yes, I am totally with you. No cage needed, no fish-head needed. If you don't care for organic growing, get a good tomato-fertilizer. Else, do it the organic way (just as easy).
One more important side-note though:
Make sure to give your tomatoes some kind of roof, if it rains a lot in your location. As said in the posting, "late blight" not only loves water, it loves water on the leaves, that is where the fungi grow. So make sure, to save your tomatoes from direct rain and you will be a lot happier.
We have about 60 different varieties waiting for may to come, to be planted outside.
- hp50g 14y agoTo be honest I've never had a problem with blight because I rotate religiously (I have several beds) and I water the soil, not the plants. Rain historically hasn't been a major problem living in the south so far :) Pigeon shit is far more hazardous! Good general advice though.
