1. Against mildew and powdery mildew

If you have a vegetable garden, you surely know your enemies. I named mildew and powdery mildew.

These fungi attack tomatoes, courgettes, vines or roses.

They are recognized by the white areas, like cotton, which settle on the leaves and cause them to die in a few days.

To avoid this, dilute 2 teaspoons of bicarbonate in 2 liters of water, and spray directly on the affected leaves.

Don't forget the underside of the sheet. Do this twice a week, in dry weather, preferably in the evening to avoid direct sun.

This trick works curatively, but also preventively. Check out the trick here.

In addition, this preparation has the power to green the leaves of your plants at home.

Spray this mixture 2 to 3 times a week on your plants.
