The baking soda mix is said to prevent blackspot, but not to cure it.  The 
best organic cure I know for fungi is milk.  Use skim or powdered milk, 
about 1/3 cup milk to 2/3 cup water.  Margaret L

Hi,

for those who have/had problems with fungis such as blackspot, here's a spay
recipe I found on a web page
(http://www.countrycaregardens.com/pesticidefreeinsectcontrol.htm):

Mix 100 parts water with 1 part baking soda and 1-2 drops dish soap to
improve coverage of foliage. For severe disease on tough plants, increase
concentration up to 20 parts water to 1 part baking soda.

As anyone any idea if this works well or not??

Thanks
