Late blight in both tomatoes and potatoes is caused by the oomycete Phytophthora infestans, and is a worldwide destructive disease. Under favorable weather conditions, tomato and potato crops can be destroyed within days. Cool, moist conditions are considered most favorable for late blight to develop and spread.
If you discover blights in your vegetable garden (whether itâs found on tomatoes, potatoes, eggplant, or other plants) ALWAYS remove the infected plant and dispose of it. You can either burn the plant, or place it in a garbage bag and throw it in the trash.
