: I grow my tomatoes in the valley of the North Platte in western Nebraska.  For the last three years(after relativity mild winters) something has affected my plants almost as soon as I plant them.  I have assumed it is tomato blight.  This what has worked each year:  2 heaping spoons of cayene pepper boiled and allowed to cool.  1 spoonful of dishsoap in a spray bottle.  After the cayene infusion has cooled, pour into spray bottle, fill with water and spray plants.  I usually do this 2 or 3 times.  It seems if I spray it rains(just like washing my truck!), so I respray to replace what the rain washes away.  I am also trying it this year on my eggplant which are attacked by Colorado Potatoe beetles.  Good luck.
