Anyone with a suggestion for eliminating mineral spots on leaves. We try to keep the water off the leaves when watering but a little still gets there leaving white spots on the leaves. We switched to the high calcium fertilizer this year to combat the stem breakage of last year and now have this problem.

Try 1 oz of Capsil in one gallon of water. Spray the solution on the foliage and bracts then rinse immediately. This is a really effective way to clean mineral and chemical residue off the foliage and bracts.


Thank you for using Ecke Ranch Tech Help on-line!
