Re: Twists and Turns in the Dragon's Tale



Yo Sandi,
         Aphids do not bring powdery mildew. Mildew is a fungus which is
everywhere all the time..it just needs the right conditions to breed..warm
and damp...then it spreads like wildfire..need to spray against this BEFORE
it happens otherwise its too late. Aphids do cause sooty mould which is
small black spots on plants. Its what the little horrors excrete that turns
mouldy and stops the leaves from working.

     Alun
