no blight at all this year, outside or in greenhouse. Massive yields of moneymaker (bit bland tasting) also Sungold which was gorgeous. Outside toms this year were put in large pots and not grobags, also those in greenhouse, much better and retained water really well. Our 10 yr old grandson grew the moneymakers from seedsticks which he got at an eco-centre in Wales last year. You push the matchstick like sticks in the compost (the seeds are stuck to the ends) voila - seedlings thru very quickly, wish there were more available like this (only £1 per packet by the way) we grew marigolds as usual and put them around the base of tomato plants, I never spray my plants, only water mist the leaves sometimes, no chemicals whatsoever and as I say no bugs or blight, don't know why
