Thanks Phil I'm planning Sarpo Mira main with Orla for the earlies but I like charlottes and I will give your suggestion to chop off the tops a go.
I used to need a testing kit to check for blight but it's been so much of a nuisance I could spot it in the dark now.
Blight watch is a good site to monitor the outbreaks nearby
