Greetings -
It has been an unusually wet summer, even for south
Louisiana, and September is predicted to be more of
the same - a daily soaking; sometimes days of drizzle.
This too-much hs led to an unexpected problem for me;
I grow almost everything on a mount of some kind. I
haven't had problems with orchids rotting (or
liquefying), but am beginning to have fungus problems
on the wood mounts themselves (mostly grapevine, also
cork, catalpa, cedar, etc.). The growths include
several kinds of typical mushrooms as well as some
bract/tree-ear types.
In my arsenal I have Physan, Bordeaux and elemental
sulfur powders - will any of these help? I suppose
these are a type of mycelium, rather than what I think
of as a typical fungus.
If not, then what can I try?
Thanks - Nancy
