Topsfield, Ma.

Got a cluster of beebalm (sp?) next to the patch i've treated 3x now w/daconil, and the mildew is still coming !
Patch got daconil and seaweed before any mildew signs, and shows no sign of it yet ! Hope this helps someway ?

Daconil works on the early stages of P.M. But if it is Downy Mildew you need another fugicide. Ask your local extension agent if you're not sure.

Duff - I've been growing Bee Balm for a couple of years now. This plant is very susceptible to powdery mildew. I treated mine early on w/sulfer powder and no signs of it yet.

Powdery Mildew is difficult to stop once it starts.
