Our knowledgeable staff here at Garden-Ville are available to answer many of the questions you might have about gardens, landscaping, and trees. Many problems with plants, however, cannot be responsibly diagnosed other than in person. We're located in central Texas and may not be familiar with the details of gardening in very different climate or soil zones. One of the guiding principles of organic growing is adapting methods to the particularites of local soil and climate. With that in mind we'll do our best to answer your question, but if we can't we'll be happy to help you find the appropriate resources or professionals in your area.

    Plant Questions, Potassium Bicarbonate

    If the disease has not spread too much, you should trim the affected parts of the plant and throw them away.  You can then try spraying Garden-Ville's fungicide, Potassium Bicarbonate, on the rest of the plant.  It may be too late to offer a successful solution, however, and you may need to discard all of your plants this season.  Do not compost or turn the affected plants into the soil as it may spread the blight even further.  Since Garden-Ville is located in Central Texas, you may want to contact your local nursery or agricultural extension office in your area to identify your specific type of blight and future prevention.
