Problems
Prevention and Control : keep weeds down and expend sieve on windowpane to keep them out . take away or discard infested plants , keep them away from non - infested plants . Trap with yellow unenviable card or take reward of rude enemies such as predatory mites . Sometimes a well steady shower of water will moisten them off the plant . look up your local garden center professional or county Cooperative extension office for effectual chemic recommendations . Pest : Spider MitesSpider mitesare pocket-size , 8 legged , spider - alike creatures which thrive in hot , dry conditions ( like heated up houses ) . Spider speck feed with piercing mouth part , which have plant life to appear chicken and stippled . folio drop and plant decease can occur with heavy infestations . Spider soupcon can multiply speedily , as a female person can put up to 200 eggs in a life-time couple of 30 day . They also bring forth a web which can cover infested leaves and flowers .
Prevention and Control : Keep pot down and remove infested plant . Dry air seems to worsen the problem , so make certain plant are on a regular basis watered , especially those preferring high humidity such as tropicals , citrus fruit , or tomatoes .

If a plant is infest with whiteflies , you will see a cloud of fly insects when the plant is disturb . whitefly can weaken a industrial plant , eventually leading to constitute decease if they are not checked . They can transmit many harmful plant viruses . They also produce a sweet substance called honeydew ( covet by ants ) which can lead to an unattractive disgraceful open fungous growth call sooty stamp .
potential controls : keep pot down ; utilisation screening in window to keep them out ; remove infested industrial plant out from non - infested plants ; apply a reflective mulch ( Al foil ) under works ( this repels whitefly ) ; trap with yellowish sticky card , implement labeled pesticide ; encourage instinctive opposition such as parasitic wasps in the garden ; and sometimes a expert steady shower of body of water will wash them off the plant life .

Seek the recommendation of a professional and keep abreast all label procedures to a teeing ground . Fungi : Powdery MildewPowdery Mildewis usually find on plant life that do not have enough air circulation or decent light . problem are worse where nights are cool and days are warm and humid . The powdery white-hot or hoar fungus is unremarkably found on the upper control surface of leafage or yield . Leaves will often turn yellow or brown , draw in up , and drop off . New leaf emerge crinkle and misrepresented . Fruit will be dwarf and often drop early .
Prevention and Control : Plant resistant diversity and infinite plant by rights so they meet adequate visible radiation and zephyr circulation . Always water from below , keeping water off the leaf . This is preponderant for roses . Go easy on the N fertilizer . Apply fungicides according to label directions before problem becomes stark and come after direction on the nose , not missing any required treatments .

They are rapacious feeders assault a all-embracing variety of plant . They can be highly destructive and are characterized as leaf feeders , stem borers , foliage roller , cutworms and tent - former .
Prevention and Control : keep widow’s weeds down , scout individual plants and remove caterpillars , enforce label insecticides such as soaps and oils , take vantage of natural foe such as parasitic wasp in the garden and use Bacillus thuringiensis ( biological warfare ) for some caterpillar metal money . fungus kingdom : Black SpotA known rose disease , Black Spotappears on young leaves as maverick smutty circle , often having a yellow halo .
