How can I stop powdery mildew on my strawberries?


Our Advice:

Powdery mildew is worse if air circulation is poor or the plants are not getting enough moisture. So keep them well watered and try sprays of Plant Rescue for Fruit Veg and Flowers from Westland from Westland or Systhane Fungus Fighter from Bayer.
