The disease very quickly struck almost all potted specimens. In a specialized store, the seller recommended Alirin-B. Dissolve 1 tablet in 0.5 liters of water. I poured the working solution into a regular sprayer. The result was visible after the first treatment. A week later, she repeated the treatment of flowers. The signs of the disease disappeared. The third treatment was of a prophylactic nature. The advantages of the tool include its safety and non-toxicity. The disadvantage is poor solubility. The overall score is 4 points on a 5-point system.” Roman M., Vsevolozhsk, Russian Federation, summer resident: “I grow a variety of crops in my summer cottage.
