You can't unless you have a commercial grade air purification system with HEPA, UV, etc... The spores are in the air. Everytime you open a door air is exchanged that contains spores of all kinds of fungus.



The tomato looks more like some kind of wilt rather than blight which also affects the fruit.

The Grow Big is too high in nitrogen and probably why your peppers didn't flower well.
So now what just be extremely careful and use iso ?

My jalapenos and habaneros did awesome this season. Tomatoes and bells in the garden sucked. One bell pepper per plant and the tomatoes where just too wet. Anything in a pot under the overhang of the house did awesome.

I thought maybe they didn't pollinate...your suppose to pollinate peppers is what I've read but I thought the bees did that and the wind

your peppers are sharing an infection from a hardwood tree that is shedding dead matter

if you keep up on topdressing compost and don't over feed N you'll not see it progress.

You have to have bees. Do you have plants that attract pollinators in your yard? It's a good idea to plant lots of flowers that attract bees around your yard if you're growing vegetables. Gives the bees a reason to be in the area. A couple pepper plants might not show up on the radar. Yellow flowers are really attractive to bees.

You don't need bees to pollinate bell peppers. Same as tomatoes, wind or shaking is enough.

Jack's 321 has been great for my peppers and tomatoes btw. I get so many flowers on my bell peppers indoors that I have to pick 80% of them off. Outdoor have been slower but they're not on a constant 18/6. Have to up the calnit for the tomatoes though or I get blossom end rot.

Correct with some varieties of the nightshade family but It's alway good to create pollinator habitat. Plus flowers are nice to look at and other crops that aren't self pollinators do need bees. And you get even better pollination with the addition of pollinators.
