A few years old. Not sure if anything has changed since then, I found it very interesting. Saw my first BBTV infected plant last week. What a travesty.

I'm glad I don't have any of those diseases here. I can grow whatever I want as long as it can take the winter cold and wind. Here's a thread you should check out:

Yeah, I hope that we are not left with plantains in the future.
