Bleach
Does anyone have thoughts on spraying pumpkin plants with bleach. Possible
effects on nutrients, leaf health, or other problems. In the past I have sprayed
individual spots on leaves to kill mildew without any harm to the plant. In 1999 I
am planning to dig a small water reservoir and was thinking of putting bleach in the
irrigation water to prevent unwanted pests from growing in irrigation lines. Any
thoughts, or better methods? If bleach is totally non harmful to the plants, could
it be used to kill some of the hard to get rid of diseases (bacterial wilt, phyto,
gummy stem blight, mosaics)?
thanks,
Nic Welty
