Did you have a favourite ONvegetables.com post in 2015? Is there one you keep referring back to — or sharing with others? Here’s a list of the ten or so of the most popular articles of 2015.
#1 Fusarium basal plate rot of onion and garlic
This is actually a 2012 post, but with a catchy title like that, no wonder it’s still popular!
#2 That’s the question on everyone’s mind, isn’t it? This 2011 post is still getting a lot of views.
#3 Tomato late blight photo gallery
A picture is worth 1000 words, they say. This post has 23 pictures, so it’s worth 23,000 words. Aren’t you glad you didn’t have to read that many! And I’m even more glad I didn’t have to write them!
#4 Pests enjoy culinary herbs too!
This popular article comes from our specialty crop colleagues. You can read more from them on their ONspecialtycrops blog.

There must be more celery growers than I thought, for this to make the top 5!
#6 Who wouldn’t want to read about rindworms in watermelon? This is another 2011 post that is still going strong.
#7 Late blight update – June 24
There’s a lot of late blight information for tomato growers in this 2015 update. The disease is not popular, but this post was.

This question is on a lot of people’s minds.
