Powdery Mildew?
I have a privett/laurel hedge and the laurel has white powder on the leaves,
have done a internet search and come to the conclusion that it's probably powdery mildew. There doesn't seem to be any comercial sprays for this problem (or am I looking in the wrong place) but there are many - your - own recipies for spraying the leaves, these seem to be variations on quantities of baking soda and liquid soap. Anyone know if these work or can put me on to a comercially available spray. Thanks. .. |

Powdery Mildew?
g'day david,
not sure about p.m on a perrenial type shrub but! for me in the vege garden i fnd good drainage helps the plants roots to be healthier thus a healthy plant and less chance of p.m also full sun and breezy position help as does not watering the foliage, so with this i get very little p.m. there is a suggestion for using milk sprayed on the plants to conrol p.m we have suggested recipe on our remedies page: http://www.lensgarden.com.au/hintsNtips.htm might be other suggestions there i can't recall? keep us updated On Sat, 5 Jun 2010 16:26:29 +0100, "David D" wrote: snipped -- Matthew 25:13 KJV "Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh" Mark 13:33 "Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is". len With peace and brightest of blessings, "Be Content With What You Have And May You Find Serenity and Tranquillity In A World That You May Not Understand." http://www.lensgarden.com.au/ |
