    Botrytis Remedy?

    Anyone know of anyway I can stop my plants in the greenhouse getting infected with grey mould (botrytis) I am just basically removing any infected leaves/fruit at the moment

    I am trying to keep it has well ventilated as possible to no avail, this summer sucks

    also what should I use to fumigate the greenhouse at the end of the season?

    Hessayon says to cut out diseased areas and dust with carbendazim ( a fungicide?) probably banned now cos my copy is donkeys years old

    i use a sulphur candle in the gh at the end of the season.
    Someone what knows more than I does will be along soon

      Yes, cut out all diseased material, ventilate a much as possible and remove all rubbish ie. fallen leaves etc. At the end of the season give the house a good scrub and use a sulphur candle, just make sure you use enough as one will only cover a certain area. You could try dusting with flowers of sulphur now if that hasn't been banned as well.

      The problem is the cold wet weather you are having, breeds rot!! 27 here today.
