courgettes
Hello.
I'm growing courgettes in a tub. The leaves are all turning silvery-white, spreading out from the veins. It doesn't look like powdery mildew to my inexperienced eye - but I'm not sure. The fruits seem to be developing OK.. Is this discolouration normal or a disease ? Any ideas or advice please ? Thanks KK |

Thanks KK I grew courgettes last year for the first time. The leaves also turned powdery white, but this didn't seem to affect the humongous crop... to my great shame, I ended up putting the last few onto the compost heap... So, either it is entirely normal, or in any case it has no negative effect on the crop. Cat(h) |

Mine don't seem to suffer from it either. -- Tim C. |
