Fight mildew with black soap

Downy mildew is a fungal disease of plants. Its appearance and spread are favored by heat and humidity. It can be harmful to both amateur and professional gardeners. Nevertheless, it can be easily and quickly identified: brownish-yellow spots appear above the leaves. These then gradually dry out. Since it can survive in the soil for 3 to 5 years and is frost-resistant, there are a number of ways to prevent infection: water without wetting the leaves, grow under cover, rotate crops from one year to the next and, above all, aerate the vegetable garden well: in the greenhouse or garden, remember to space the plants far enough apart so that the leaves can dry out.

But what to do once mildew has set in? The first recommendation is to cut off infested leaves, taking care not to leave them at the foot of crops, as this could spread the infection to the soil.

There are also natural solutions for curative or preventive treatment, depending on how advanced the disease is.

Many vegetable species, such as squash, lettuce and tomatoes, can be affected by this disease. To combat mildew naturally, mix 20 ml of black soap and 5 g of sodium bicarbonate in 2 liters of hot water. Spray infested leaves and repeat after heavy rain.
