I bought a house in September 2020. A clean pallet for another 15 years as I’ve recently left my tropical garden in Brisbane and moved to Ipswich.

#gerbera Example of #powderymildew #yellowladybugs seem to eat it. Otherwise I’m going to try the 10% milk method.

@Sussanah usually it’s because they’re too dry. I would cut the leaves of and dispose off first then do your milk thing (can you explain what that is please?) otherwise if you drop fluid on the mildew it’ll spread as the droplets 💧 drop on the leaves. Plus if you feed and water well it’ll give it a really big boost to produce new growth.

Milk spray method didn’t work for me when I grew zucchinis... 🙁

@pixierose thanks for that Christine. Didn’t know that. 10%milk to 90%water. Katie said it doesn’t work

@brightcolours I’ll try it out and see. I quite often have one plant that gets it so when I do I’ll give it a try. Thank you 😊🙏🏼
