Late Blight Alert

Late Blight now in WNC

Late blight was detected in a West Asheville tomato garden over the weekend. It is now in our general area. Our weather has been very conducive for it... so it was just a matter of time before it showed up. Details on how to manage it, can be found here:

If you have tomatoes that have not been flooded out and are able to get into your fields please be sure to get a fungicide treatment on them as soon as possible.
