Naturally Disease Resistant Vegetables Blight


Blight is an airborne fungal disease most often seen on tomatoes and potatoes. It is most common in warm, wet


weather. The leaves of affected plants turn brown, followed by the stems, and eventually the whole plant may collapse. The fruit develops brown patches and gradually rots. Removing any affected leaves or fruit as


soon as possible may slow the disease. There are no chemical controls against blight, so the


best defence is to plant blight- resistant varieties.

Club Root Club root is a soil-borne


fungal infection that affects the roots of brassicas like


brussels sprouts, cabbage and caulifl ower, causing swollen, distorted roots and stunted plants with purplish foliage that wilts rapidly in warm weather. Plants produce poor


yields, and may die altogether. There are no chemical controls for club root, but it is much


less prevalent in alkaline soils. Planting club root-resistant varieties in alkaline soils will greatly reduce infection.
