powdery mildew

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Countryside : One Thread

We have a small solarium on the south side of the house where we raise some salad greens and keep the house plants. We have a recurring problem with powdery mildew. Any suggestions on how to get rid of it without using poisonous chemicals? Thanks john

Do you have any air circulating? Something to keep the humidity down? You may have to start with fresh soil. Sue
