Spray this solution wherever you need. It is excellent on plants like roses. It can be used on grapes when they first appear, on tomatoes, or on cucumbers, pumpkins and other plants that are often prone to fungus, or mildew which will easily ruin your harvest.
Spray early, it will not damage the plants and will protect them. Repeat the application once a week for about 2 months and don’t forget to reapply after a rainfall.
