Blight treatment?

[Jaspernuts]

Tomatoes are showing blight on the bottom of the plants. Is it best to cut off these infected branches or will that hurt the plant more? I seem to get it every year out of the same garden, is there anything I can put in the soil to prevent it?

Ken I noticed under the comments that one talked about using 2oz of bleach to a gallon of water and really water the heck out of your plants. He claimed it stopped the blight and did not hurt his plants. Have you ever herd of such a method ?

No....I've never heard of that.Might have to try that.

We got it the last 2 years, this year I put down straw around the tomatos so when it rains the water doesn't hit the soil and then splash onto the leaves. So far so good, everything looks great! This isn't a treatment but a preventative measure that I have taken.

The bleach treatment didn't work.....tried it on 2 plants.Killed them.Good thing I din't spray them all.
