Reply With QuoteAwesome. I had my first Cherokee Purple tomato sandwich this weekend. Nothing like vine ripened tomato sandwich and Cherokee Purple are my favorite.

Bacterial Wilt killed my tomato plants 2 years in a row now. I had to replant 3 Determinates with the first big tomato starting to turn as of yesterday. Is it OK to say "I'm Jealous"?

If I remember my Daddy's advice on Wilt correctly, you need to replace your soil. As you have found, the bacteria remains in the soil forever. He grew a 1/2 acre garden every year. I helped as I grew up, but was never fascinated by the process and details as much as he. He was the little old man that fed the neighborhood from his garden.Originally Posted by rojoguio

I spray my plants with Fungicide 3 but it doesn’t help with soil issues.

Read up some on it. It’s nasty stuff not easily controlled or treated. I’d contact your local soil department and see if they can help or have any recommendations. I try to avoid chemicals personally.

I'm tired of the fight. I bought sterile soil, used a 25 gallon pot, have them on a automatic waterer twice a day for 10 minutes, and my test plants are gorgeous. I have numerous 25 gallon pots since I propagate & cross graft trees as another hobby (why I have over 80 varieties on site) so next year my first garden purchase will be a pallet of potting soil. (and Determinate tomatoes all the way!)

once its in the soil you have to cover the soil with black plastic for 6 months to kill everything. I'm too tired of this fight. I do not have the room to rotate a crop because I have trees everywhere. The wine comes first, I can go to the Farmer's Market in Desperation for a Homegrown Tomato for BLT's.I spray my plants with Fungicide 3 but it doesn’t help with soil issues.
