Cool video, I am a legal cannabis grower here in SW Michigan and PM can be a real pain. What works for us here is an H2O/ H2O2 mix and worm castings as a soil cap. Ratio: 12 T (3/4 C) hydrogen peroxide to 1 gal water, preferably distilled, it really works good. May I say, you are so very darn cute, love your smile and energy.
Great video and info! Thank you in advance for the upcoming nettle & comfrey tea videos!
Next year, I will mix some of this up. My squashes, phlox and peonies will be most grateful, as am I. Thank you!
I have that problem with my bushes of roses, Thank you for your input, and your videos, very informative!
Thanks for sharing Angela, I will use this recipe.
I sprinkle ground cinnamon on my plants that are prone to powdery mildew. Mostly roses, the leaves have to be wet for it to adhere. Cinnamon is a natural fungicide, you can put it in your shoes for any fungus. I love the mix that you use!thanks for sharing your information with us.

I also remove the leaves from the plant and the ground around the plant. Don't compost the leaves.

You used the wrong kind of cinnamon. The common cinnamon sold at the grocery store isn’t the correct type to use in garden

Thank you Angela. 😃
Great info, thanks for sharing.
Thanks. Looking forward to trying this.
Great information . Thank you
Thanks, I will have to try this for my squash!
Thanks for sharing!
excited to try this this week. My roses are suffering, buds drooping. Hoping I get some good results. I had to just these babies to the ground last year due to house painting. Fingers crossed.
Thank you. I just found my first powdery mildew leaf.
Thanks for all the info x
I live in the high desert of California and my lady banks roses have this white powder. I hate using insecticides so I’m gonna give this a shot.
Great content, thank you so much! My Babies have been afflicted by that darn fungus-I’ve thrown Home Depot products left and right and nothing works. Thank you!!!
Thanks for sharing thus info as im dealing with such on my Rose's I noticed white stuff on some the other day and brown spots on some leaves as well. I been break them leaves off and even cut back parts and thrown that out .. Im looking for something natural to kill this stuff .. This video is very informative and helpful.
Thanks from india.🎉🎉
Great video! Question, do you just spray the tops of the leaves or do you also spray the bottoms of the leaves?
Thank uou
Thank you for the video. I have powdery mildew on a few of my plants. How often can I use this recipe?
The reason this works is because the amino acids and calcium create a scenario that allows the plant to uptake calcium at a greater rate. This in turn fights off powdery mildew.
I've tried milk and water mix recently and didn't find it obviously effective for the PM on my tomatoes. Although only test once on a number of plants effected by it. Neem oil seemed much more effective. I sprayed a number of my plants with it for a white fly issue and had next to no PM on those plants.
Never had this issue until the past few years. Why?! Why now. Any one know?!
Can you do a video on rust spots? I have some holly hock I planted from seed last year and it grew wonderfully. It’s coming up this year and quickly develops rust spots, so I have been cutting off leaves and disposing of them, but the rust spots keeps coming. What can I do?

I have found rust on hollyhocks is unbeatable in our climate. There's at least one perennial species that i'm aware of that is rust-resistant; Alcea rugosa. Might be some other garden cultivars that are disease resistant
For susceptible plants like squash, would you recommend spraying even before signs of PM in Portland?

I would recommend avoiding overhead watering and go for soaker hoses. And I don’t often get it on my squash because I don’t overhead water. I only rarely get it, so I don’t pretreat. I have a video coming out on this topic soon!
Would this also work on peach leaf curl?

No not really. The only approved organic fungicide that works even remotely. Well that I know of is copper and even then it is pretty toxic. It’s best to plant resistant varieties.
Oh my gosh! Takes foooooorrrrreeeeebvvvveeeeerrrrrr to get to the point. Thanks for the info though!

@@DoseofScienceDoSYou do know that yogurt is made from milk right? The sodium found in milk is not an additive but naturally from the source...aka 🐄. All of the experts are saying milk...not one has said yogurt. It's the proteins and enzymes in milk that create an antifungal property which are not necessarily the same in yogurt.
