Some of my pot grown early potato haulms are showing brown, chocolate blotches. Is this blight? I thought it was too early for this disease.
I should also add brown spots in various places on the leaves. Many thanks!
Sounds like it,but it could also be magnesium defiency,which shows as brown blotches between the veins of the leaves.
Havn't been warned of any blight in the area around here,you can join blight watch for warnings in your area,you have to register,but they don't bug you with anything just send warnings out.
There are no reports of blight in the UK. Still too early. It could be that the plants are dying down naturally and are ready to eat. My early pot grown potatoes are now ready to harvest.
