Re: CULT: crown rot vs southern blight?


What's the difference between these two - southern blight if it occurs
in zone 8+, crown rot farther north?

I'm wondering what to call the slimy ick - starts with stalks and outer
leaves, turning a bilious bright, wet looking green, then rots off the
stalk bases.  Always hits vulnerable cultivars in warmer weather either
after stress of freezes or stress of drought followed by stress of a lot
of rain (which we seem to have constantly this spring).  It doesn't look
or smell like soft rot.
