My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Corn Meal for fungus control

23 years ago

On other forums here at GW people have reported some success with corn meal.

Has anybody tested it on roses for blackspot, powdery mildew and rust?

Would it be as good as Daconil as a fungicide for tomatoes?

If it works, please describe how it is done (applied how, quantity, frequency, etc.) Corn meal seems much friendlier than the chemicals at Home Depot.

Thanks,

Conrad
