I was looking at the leaves real close and they are suffering
from the start of the accursed power mildew. So I soaked
the plant yesterday in copper spray.

have you looked up the milk spray. i would
not use copper regularly. people may say it is
organic, but i think it poisons other creatures
too much and is accumulative.


Got a link to it?


google them and read away. i would always try
the least toxic options first.

i did try a bordeau mix on my grape vine to
control black rot, but decided that it wasn't
worth the bother and took the vine out instead.
sometimes you just pick wiser battles.

Hi Songbird,

I tried Neem oil on them two years in a row. Completely
worthless.
