Powdery mildew part 2...

Just thought I'd post an update on the pumpkin plants. This morning I went out and only a few of them have any signs of still active fungus. The baking soda solution really did the trick. What is noticeable though is all of the places the mildew was damaging the plant. There are some crispy crunchy spots on a few of the leaves that were really bad, as long as it doesn't spread, they'll stay, though I am quite confident that the issue is pretty much resolved. I'm going to do another treatment on just a few leaves tomorrow morning and that should be the end of things. Hooray for organic solutions in the garden!
