Grower's Ally Fungicide, 8 oz

I live in the southeast U.S. where it's very humid most of the year, and powdery mildew is a constant battle. I'd tried milder DIY options (baking soda solutions) and that worked ok on some plants (like my bee balm, which the mildew seems to love) but wasn't as effective on my succulents (and not the most convenient to use, e.g. spray nozzles clogging after awhile). Decided to give this a try, and it has worked great at controlling powdery mildew on both outdoor & indoor plants. Even a single treatment (I always forget whatever short-term repeat it recommends in the directions) clears up most mildew. Some reviewers have commented about leaves falling off after using this on plants with powdery mildew-- but yeah, sounds like that's from the fungus. You're not going to restore leaf damage from powdery mildew, the goal is to prevent further damage/avoid it damaging so much foliage that it significantly harms the plant. My bee balm has had no leaf-loss issues with this. Likewise, my succulents will usually have a brown scar where the fungus was but keep those leaves (it'd make sense for a plant to drop leaves if you treated them with a pretty intense or widespread infection, as they'd no longer be much use to the plant). I also lightly spray my uninfected succulents, prophylactically (at the same dilution), and they've not suffered any ill effects from the fungicide. One caveat, I feel like a fungicide perhaps shouldn't... grow a bunch of mold? (Happened in both the spray bottle and the slightly larger bottle that I use to make the dilution, a week or two after mixing it up; both bottles had been closed in the meantime.) It may be that the fungicide is just targeted to fungi likely to affect plants rather than being a "nuke it all" approach (which would actually be a good thing IMO) or just balancing strength vs. safety for plants (and humans, other stuff in environment, etc.). Not taking off any stars as it still works well as applied to my plants right after diluting-- I'll just mix up smaller volumes at a time from now on, fresh each time I need to use it.

works well on my plants. Saved them from death!!!! highly recommend!!!

Minimally effective on my cukes and zucchini. But with our rains in TX I don’t think this product is totally to blame.

Excellent product

It works. Ordering another!

Doesn’t work instantly
