When growing tomatoes, every summer resident is likely to encounter a number of problems, and late blight is far from the last among them.

Experienced gardeners, not wanting to give their harvest to the enemy, resort to various methods of combating late blight.

For example, some of them use hot peppers for this purpose. You will find a detailed description of this unusual method below.

You will need just one pod of red hot pepper, which must be chopped or grated as finely as possible.

Now you should pour the resulting “shavings” into a glass and fill it with water.

Cover the container with a lid and leave for a day - this time will be enough for the product to infuse.

The next day, the contents of the glass should be strained.

Now all that's left to do is pour the resulting red pepper-based solution into a spray bottle and treat the tomatoes. You should do the treatment either early in the morning or late in the evening, so that any remaining drops on the tomato leaves do not cause sunburn.
