I think we need to keep track of which species got sick throughout the experiment! Last week, I noticed that Acne got what looks like powdery mildew (I only know this in the context of Vitis vinifera. I asked Dan what he thought about it and he gave me 3 options:

  1. Systemic fungicide
  2. Organic fungicide
  3. Solution of baking powder As it was Friday and we didn't have time to do anything until Tuesday, the plants remained as is. When I came back on Wednesday, Acne got much worse. Therefore, we decided to apply systemic fungicide. Sorry for not keeping you in the loop @lizzieinvancouver and @FrederikBaumgarten, but I felt I needed to act quickly or else we might have had to drop another species...
