Hi, this is my first post to this site, so I hope you will forgive me if
this problem has been covered before. Every year the overwintering
plants in my unheated greenhouse suffer from grey mould. I make sure
that the plants are not too close together and that the greenhouse is
well ventilated, although up here in Morayshire most of the air going
in is fairly damp. I wondered if there was a spray someone could
recommend that might prevent this, as I am a bit wary about using
sprays on dormant plants. I tried green sulphur powder last year but
it did not have much effect.

Maybe the soil is to damp?? I try to keep most of my pots on the dry side.
Geraniums stand this very well. Which plants do you seem to be having the most
trouble with?
