No, I haven't. Though since I planted several shrub roses this year, I
might as well give it a try. It might work as a deterrent before any
problem gets going. Has anyone else tried it on plants outside?
I did use the baking soda, horticultural oil mix on peonies infected with a
fungus with good results. Didn't get rid of it completely, but the first
year I used it there was much less of a problem, and the next year, hardly
any at all. In the fall I removed & replaced much of the topsoil around the
peonies and cleaned up all debris as well. I haven't had to use the mixt
since then. That was maybe 3 or 4 years ago. The mix was originally tested
on roses. I think the recipe was given fairly recently here.
