What is Powdery Mildew?

Plants are constantly exposed to the elements. Rainfall, irrigation and sunlight all play a part in diseases and how to control them. Powdery mildew forms on plants when the plant is dry, there’s little light and there is high humidity. During late spring, early summer when the weather is cool & humid is when plants are more prominent in getting diseases.

What happens if you leave powdery mildew untreated?

Powdery mildew will show up on the lower leaves, and if the white powdery fungus is not treated fast it will spread to the rest of the plant. When the leaves become severely covered with powdery mildew, the plants photosynthesis will slow down, leaving leaves yellow and to eventually die.

Natural preservatives are used to stop decomposition of the plant cell wall thus adding an active natural healing action to the plant not just a controlling action against microbes.
