Powdery mildew is a common fungal disease that affects a wide variety of plants. It appears as a white or gray powdery coating on leaves, stems, and buds. Left untreated, it can:
- Stunt plant growth
- Reduce flowering and fruiting
- Lead to plant death in severe cases
It thrives in warm, humid environments and spreads easily through wind, insects, and even water splashes.
🔍 Common Causes of Powdery Mildew
Understanding what causes powdery mildew is key to fighting it. The main triggers include:
- Poor air circulation in crowded gardens
- Overhead watering
- High humidity levels
- Lack of sunlight
- Weakened plants from stress or poor nutrition

- Fungus develops resistance
- They kill beneficial insects
- They aren’t safe for edible plants
That’s why a natural, multi-step method works best—especially one that can show visible improvement in just two weeks.
