RE: My potato growing experiment 2017

in #gardening7 years ago

Hey, that looks great. How do you actually avoid the blight?
Growing organic potatoes is actually one of our goal to improve livelihood of locals in Kedjom-Keku (Cameroon) to save their mountain forest. Please, could you help us here on steemit?

Never really had blight as a problem. Voles are a bigger nuisance than blight for me. I grow these in almost exclusively chicken manure, composted with pine shavings from the coop, and leaves that the chickens also crushed up for me. I just try to get plants as healthy as possible so they can fight the blight, or any disease.

I see. Thank you for your advice.
