do not plant the tomatos in the same area , or if you have to, plant each tomato plant in a 5 gal bucket dug into the ground with new soil in the bucket.Helpful Reply -

We also try and not plant in the same area. When we have we used mulch around the base of the plants. The mulch such as grass, paper etc. stops the ground from splashing on your plants. We also sprinkle some powdered milk around the plants every two weeks, which helps stop the blight.Helpful Reply -
