Default Wanting to mak White Oil ( callled Dormant Oil in US)

Peter Cundall, the presenter of Gardening Australia, also presents a
radio show. Below is a link to a story on that radio show regarding home
made white oil.

Also try http://www.thewaterwisegarden.com/bicarb.htm
Water wise garden has a recipe to treat powdery mildew and blackspot, plus
one for white oil.

Hope I've been some sort of help.

White oil Spraying time - found a recipe for making your own but was in
foreign language ( US).


Don Burke had a go at making white oil on his TV show, well over a year

ago
I would say it was. Have a look at his website.

IIRC he mixed something like canola oil and water, and just whipped them
to a white frenzy with an ordinary kitchen blender. His mixture had to be
sprayed straightaway before the oil and water start to separate. I believe
he said any of the light edible oils could be used.
