    Would that milk solution work for honeysuckle perhaps? Mine was blitzed by Mildew this Spring...

    No idea, but looking at my cucumbers this morning it is like a miracle cure - they are so much happier looking!

    I have a honeysuckle that has been decimated by mildew this year, despite using mildew spray on it; I am going to move it in the spring and chop it right back to see if it takes off again,

    Think I'll do likewise, and have some milk solution standing by :)

    I gave them another spray yesterday, and have fed them today with Miracle Gro as I got the feeling that they (along with other stuff) was deficient in nitrogen. They are already looking perkier, so fingers crossed.
