IIRC, some say potassium in general in important for disease resistance
in plants.


Thanks for your reply in re mildew.
As to your comment above about potassium:
One of my daughters works in an office building in NYC that hires a service
to tend to the plants in the various offices. She has notices that the person
that waters the plants always has bananas floating in the watering can. She/I
have no idea why.
Could it be that potassium leaches from the bananas?
