Yippee

I had powdery mildew on my zucchini plants and some on my tomato and pepper plants. I went and bought organic whole milk and diluted it by 10 and started spraying. Took all the infected leaves off and it hasn't come back!

Simple solutions using natural predators and antagonistic natural organisms are the most natural and healthy way to deal with disease or insect pests. Once you begin to view and treat your garden as an ecosystem, you find that the ecosystem tends to irtself rather nicely...
