Title: Yellow Blisters on Brassicas
Post by: Susiebelle on September 07, 2008, 11:42:50
On our site this year the leaves on various brassicas are suffering from some sort of yellow blister, never seen the likes before.  At first I thought it may have been a little stray weed killer (frm neighbour) but it's not just an isolated incident, has anyone any thoughts on what it could be :-\

Sounds like white blister. It can appear as yellowish ..Its a fungal type infection ..I think it's caused by damp conditions . Don't think there's any treatment unfortunately.

Hi
I have the same problem!! definately got white blister on all my brassicas, i've removed all the infected leaves that i can see and am just hoping for a miracle.
Have any of you experienced gardeners had it and what did you do?
