Is this powdery mildew on my Oakleaf?
Comments (11)Ok, I dug a little trench around it enough to make sure there aren't any maple roots intruding. Its definitely not wet. No spider mites. It seems very well rooted and I didn't dig if up completely; I felt like I would disturb it too much? The leaves on one side definitely seem like they have some sort of mildew or fuzz on them. I don't like to use sprays but the garden store suggested Advanced rose and flower 2 in one spray. I will give it a try. I did fertilize it with osmocote in early spring and used compost. I really don't want to lose it. Thanks for taking the time to help.......See MorePowdery mildew on nectarines
Comments (4)That does look like powdery mildew. It’s also usually one of the easiest issues to get rid of. One of the best steps is to be diligent about clean orchard management every year. If you’re going the organic route, wettable sulfur can be used for powdery mildew. Many fungicides used for brown rot control are effective against powdery mildew as well. If the infestation isn’t too bad, you can clean off the fruit, and still eat it. I’ve cleaned my fruit with vinegar to get rid of the powdery mildew and then left it on the tree to ripen.Copper fungicide can also be sprayed on every part of your fruit tree, including the fruit. Nectarines, in my part of the country are one of the harder fruits to grow. Regular rotational fungicide management is a must for us. Below is a solid list of fungicides that work for the issue you have. Good luck! https://ipm.ucanr.edu/agriculture/nectarine/powdery-mildew/...See MoreMini rose bush / powdery mildew?

Comments (9)I sometimes try to throw the cornmeal under that plant but it all lands in one clump. Organic fertilizer hates being in a clump, so when you drop it down through the middle of the plant there is a Plinko effect which randomizes the droppage through the leaves. Cornmeal is one of the ingredients in many organic fertilizers. When the beneficial microbes in the soil decompose it, in about 3 weeks the end result is plant food. That is why organic fertilizer is said to be slow release. Actually it is slow decomp followed by very fast uptake by the plants....See MoreValRose PNW Wa 8a
