Mildew on the parsley - recognize and prevent
One of the most common diseases of parsley is mildew - especially when the plants are grown outdoors. The fungal spores are already present in the soil and are promoted by too much moisture.
Genuine or wrong mildew
If there is a whitish coating on the leaves, it is usually mildew.
Causes of mildew
The fungal spores are already in the soil and spread when the plant is too moist.
Prevention of mildew
Provide permeable soil where waterlogging can not occur.
Do not water the plants too often, but only when the soil surface has dried off, and do not wet the leaves.
Arrange the parsley to the ideal planting distance of ten centimeters, so that the leaves can dry well after rain or watering.
Tips & Tricks
Some gardeners swear to plant chives between the parsley. This measure is intended to effectively reduce the occurrence of mildew.
