Title: Mildew
Post by: Suze_O on September 07, 2003, 23:13:49

Help!  Sudden outbreak of what I think must be mildew on sweet peas and cornus.

Never had this before.  Does it harm the plant.  Should I do anything apart from taking off leaves.

Also, has this been caused by very dry weather?

lucky you don't have to eat them!

No expert on this, but thankfully our cu and courgette mildew happens late in the season, so no real worry. But if you want to read about it, google mildew on plants. - Tim
