redloon Let the Battle Begin!

Monday, 11 Aug 08 (posted about 5 months ago) Sunny 18°C / 65°F

Tomorrow, my battle with powdery mildew begins!!

Here’s the recipe for my weapon:

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon liquid dish soap

1 quart (or 1 liter) water

(Recipe Source: Ellis, Barbara W. and Fern Marshall Bradley. 1992. The Organic Gardener’s Handbook of Natural Insect and Disease Control. Rodale Press.)

I’m going to spray the affected zucchini and cucumber leaves in my garden on my way to work tomorrow morning.
