POWDERY MILDEW
ACCORDING TO ORGANIC GARDENING MAG. THERE'S A NEW WAY TO CONTROL POWDERY
MILDEW. A BRAZILIAN RESEARCHER WAGNER BETTIOL SAYS , THIS IS MORE EFFECTIVE
THAN FUNGICIDES FENARIMOL OR BENOMYL. MILK... HE BELIEVES MILK CONTROLS
MILDEW BY PROVIDING A DIRECT GERMICIDAL EFFECT AND BY INDIRECTLY STIMULATING
THE PLANTS TO BECOME MORE RESISTANT. HIS DIRECTIONS ARE 1 CUP MILK AND 9
CUPS WATER. SPRAY ON TWICE A WEEK. ANYONE ELSE HEARD OF THIS ? SOUNDS LIKE
IT'S WORTH A TRY.
