Sraying Tomatoes For Blight

Farmer Dean here, and if you’ve ever had this in your tomatoes, it’s called early blight. So what you have to do is you got to clean up your plant and literally take off all of the infected leaves. And you don’t want to leave them on the ground. You want to put them in a bucket and take them away from your plant so that you don’t have anything infected.

So that’s what the plant’s going to look like without those leaves on there. But I’m going to show you what to spray with:

Baking soda

Neem oil

You not only spray the tops, but you got to get underneath the leaf because that’s where everything is coming from. It’s underneath that leaf. Neem oil kills it. Baking soda changes the pH. So you want to alternate one on the other for about three or four days in a row. Make sure you get the ground good too, because that’s where the fungus is coming from.

Oh, geez, I hate early blight on tomatoes. It makes a lot of work.
