Powdery mildew
A fungus that grows on the leaf surface, worse when days are dry and nights are damp.
- Pick off the worst leaves and take them away from the field.
- Give plants more space so air moves between them.
- If it spreads, ask the agro-shop for a fungicide for powdery mildew on your crop.
