Rusty leeks.
« on: July 08, 2007, 06:54:30 »
Hello :),

some of my leeks have started to develop rust. SHould I get rid of the ones with rust, or is it too late for the others anyway.

Also, will I stll be able to eat them?

Its a shame, as they were starting to take off a bit now :(

You can take the effected leaves off and burn them . Then spray with dithane mixed with a bit of
soap .
