I had 3 Black from Tula plants come down with some severe gray mold and I moved them to a sunnier spot, sprayed the hell out of the stems, fruit, and the few leaves that were left unaffected (x 3 days, one day on one day off, early evening applications). I sprayed 'em with Daconil once at the end of the regimen.

The new growth is as it should be and so far so good, many thanks Mr. Bill.

I've been doing aprox. 50-70 ml (depending on severity of disease) of generic bleach in 1500 ml of water. Which for you British system people, is about 2 ounces in a little over 1.5 quarts.

For reference, as per the recommendations, 5 ounces of the "new Clorox" is about 150 mL in 3,785 mL.

And for all those that forgot let me just remind you that in the REAL world the most useful formula/relation you can commit to your head is:

V1C1 = V2C2

Never fails for getting the right volume and/or concentration. Just make sure all the units agree.

Great day to everyone.
