Re: preventing wilt?


I spray daconil fungicide late in the season as a preventative. Doesn't treat it to well once you ahev it, but is very effective at prevention.

Subject: preventing wilt?


I am a newbie and I have to plant in the same location as last year
which I know is not good. Towards the end of the season I got what
appeared to be powdery mildew. Is there something specific I should do
to the soil to discourage this from returning this year?

Thanks,
Bob
