Re: Disease?


My garden is on a Plateau and is well drained medium loam.  There is a connection though (I think) with wetness & cold (weakens plant) and soil born diseases even if the soil is well drained.  May & June were cold and wet here and disease is more prevalent throughout the garden.  Some AG's seem to be more resistant than others.  Next year I will try resistant AG's and treat the soil, the other choice is not to grow any AG's there for a few years.
