Tomato blight and soil
3 summers ago, our tomatoes got blight. We rotated the tomatoes and the lettuce beds for the last 2 summers. We don't use any chemicals on the garden, so the only treatment was time. I'd like to move the tomatoes back to their original location.
I googled and found conflicting reports. What are your thoughts: is a 2 year break long enough?

Re: Tomato blight and soil
I don't think that two years is long enough. Everything I read said it takes longer, if ever to really leave. If you're really itching to plant a tomato there again I'd maybe looking into planting a wilt resistant hybrid as test.
Wilt sucks, I got wilt on one of my sections of the garden last year and it destroyed my Roma- I had to pull it by late June. Careful pruning and luck kept it from totally destroying the Better Boy that was next to the Roma. Since it never got hot enough for me to try to "bake" the soil, I'm just putting corn in that spot this year.
