Barb and Harold,
I battled WMV II for many years. Soil treatments will do little. As Harold
suggests...the virus lives if the cell lives or the plant. Perennial weeds
seem to be a good way to keep a virus going. I guess down south, alot of
things stay alive all year. I conquered the virus by packing up and heading
for the Connecticut Uplands. Barbie ...pack your bags. Will it be friends and
family, or pumpkins?......Barbie.......you're hesitating.
