Common Plant Diseases

Learn to identify and treat common plant diseases that may affect your garden.

Tomato Late Blight

Tomato Late Blight

Symptoms:

Dark, water-soaked spots on leaves that quickly enlarge and turn brown. White fungal growth may appear on the undersides of leaves in humid conditions.

Treatment:

Remove and destroy infected plants. Apply copper-based fungicide to healthy plants as a preventative measure. Ensure good air circulation and avoid overhead watering.

Powdery Mildew

Powdery Mildew

Symptoms:

White powdery spots on leaves, stems, and sometimes fruit. Leaves may yellow, curl, or drop prematurely.

Treatment:

Apply neem oil or potassium bicarbonate spray. Improve air circulation around plants and avoid overhead watering. Remove and destroy severely infected plants.

Cucumber Mosaic Virus

Cucumber Mosaic Virus

Symptoms:

Mottled yellow and green pattern on leaves. Stunted growth and deformed fruits.

Treatment:

No cure available. Remove and destroy infected plants. Control aphids which spread the virus. Plant resistant varieties.

Prevention Tips

The best way to manage plant diseases is to prevent them before they start.

Proper Watering

Water at the base of plants, not on foliage. Water in the morning so plants can dry during the day.

Good Air Circulation

Space plants properly to allow air flow. This reduces humidity and helps prevent fungal diseases.

Regular Pruning

Remove dead or diseased plant parts promptly. Sterilize tools between cuts to prevent spreading disease.

Healthy Soil

Build healthy soil with compost and organic matter. Healthy plants are more resistant to disease.

Resistant Varieties

Choose disease-resistant plant varieties when available, especially for common problems in your area.

Proper Sunlight

Ensure plants get appropriate sunlight for their species. Too much or too little can stress plants.
