For the past 2 years the school where I work has been using a ULV fogger and a hydrogen peroxide/water solution to disinfect the school for Covid. It's basically the same set up as in this video. Apparently, this system can disinfect your house as well as your garden. 😃

As he said test spray and start at a lower dose, 12 Tbsp per gallon can cause some burning on some of my varieties but others it doesn't, for me burning looks like black pin prick spots usually on the area of the leaf water will sit after spraying, like a curled leaf tip. 8 TBsp per gallon completely stopped/killed Septoria leaf spot on two of my varieties with only 1 or 2 sprays, but 8 Tbsp (even up to 10) wouldn't kill it on two of my sensitive heirloom varieties. Once I go to 10 Tbsp i got some burning on the leaves for those sensitive plants, but even though it isn't killing the septoria leaf spot on those plants, the lower dose of 8 Tbsp is stopping the spread to new leaves. I do strongly recommend to check plants closely especially the varieties that tend to have physiological leaf roll. its so easy for water or dew to collect in the rolled leaves at night, and any fungal spores that have blow in from the wind will get wet and start an infection. Those rolled leaves act like a trap/funnel for fungal spores to get into and without unrolling the leaves and checking the tips and sides of the leaf you may not see the amount of infection until its well established. I had leaf spot start without any rain for 9 days and it was from the dew collecting in those rolled leaves on just 2 plants, 2 out of 30 isnt bad though. Also as a side note, 12TBsp per gallon killed early blight on my Zinnias, but wouldn't stop my bacterial spotting which is notorious for being difficult to treat.

This is one of my top favorite gardening channels. Thanks for the info man.

Thanks for this video! That fogger looks like so much fun to play with.
As a chemist I appreciate you taking your time to explain what a chemical is. Unless anyone can access a perfect vacuum, they will never see anything chemical-free.
I always say, "life is made up of chemicals. Anyone trying to tell you differently is trying to sell you something."

I'm going to vicariously live through your garden. I live in Oklahoma worst drought in 100 years and daily triple digits plus water restrictions. My garden is gone. Enjoy that rain.

I use Coliadal Silver on my leaves for rust and mold!!!! Works amazing!!!

[TeresaFromPA]

This is so helpful!! I love your videos. They’re extremely informative and you get right to the point. Thank you!

I am just north of you in Virginia and we have the same weather……disease has really ramped up here. I tried the hydrogen peroxide spray for the first time yesterday after watching another video…..hopefully my concentration wasn’t too much. Keeping fingers crossed 🤞 it works. Fogging machine looks cool. Great video. ❤️

I use Hydrogen Peroxide spray and find it very effective, but as well as spraying my plants I use it to control Algae growth in my rain water collection tanks. It also eliminates Mosquito larvae in the collection tanks. It truly is a miracle product.

This is a wonderful video. Last year my baby okra plants had brown spots covering and all over the leaves. I used the H2O2 spray twice and it absolutely cured whatever was wrong with the plants. Those 26 plants were so prolific that I had more okra than I could use and shared with neighbors. They were Clemson spineless. This year I used a different type of okra that I LOVE, they were called Long Pod Okra from Hoss Tools. The pods are 10-12 inches long and still not too hard to use, so I'm impressed highly with those; and, so far I only have to cut them every 3 days instead of everyday.

Kudos for this advice. I did this and my plants all have come back strong. I did prune the bad stuff off but the plants all look much happier. New growth, greener. I highly reccomend spraying them with hydrogen peroxide, cheap and effective.

Women please be aware: the fogger is a great idea, and I bought one but it is way too heavy for me when its full (Im a small framed 65 year old woman) and I ended up in the chiropractor's office because it put my back out.

My favorite gardening channel. And I always look forward to seeing Dale.
Although I currently live in the desert, I know people who garden in humid climates, so I'm sharing this.

[S.Kay.Steffy]

First real explanation of how the hydrogen peroxide breaks down and why it works. Thank you for this video. And, as always, Dale is precious 👍

[amyk]

Love watching your videos! So helpful 👍🏼 I live in hot, humid Georgia so we have a very similar climate. I use the ratio of 1 Cup of 3% hydrogen peroxide mixed with 1 gallon of water. I have to spray every other day when disease is active and once a week as a preventative. It’s a pain but it’s a must for us here if I want any crop of tomatoes at all 🙄

[ponderinglife]

right after rain i clip off disease leaves and spray with neem…..your time line of plant producing ahead of disease…this really works…someone told me to get rid of my tomatoes because they all had pretty bad….i used michoderma on roots and spray with neem…the disease slows down enough for my tomatoes to put on again, , , its a cat and mouse game bit it works and you still get fruit and thats the point…you have great advice.

[Sam-nytz]

Looking Good my friend thank you. I think My husband and I saw You and Dale a few days ago at the Convention Center. I totally should have said hi but wasn't sure it was you🤣😂 My husband said It's him, I swear!! 🤷🏾‍♀️🫂 Thanks for another great video!! Your Garden is absolutely beautiful. Mine is doing very well. Thank you for all you do. Forever Thankful 🥰 We're loving NC ❤️

[teenagardner]

You've done it again 👏 right to the subject with great content delivery. I love the "fogger" approach for applications seems cover without blowing plants away. Greatly appreciate your channel since I recently discovered this year. Right from my first video I started planning my fall and next spring garden based on your info. Dale is just a handsome Boss 😍

Richard from Grafting Dragon Fruit recommended hydrogen peroxide spray for treating copper rust, but on a much higher concentration. He uses 3% hydrogen peroxide on a 1:1 ratio with water, which is 10 times stronger than usual (4 tablespoons per liter is the most common recipe). I'm sure tomato leaves are way more sensitive than dragon fruit stems, but I still use the 1:1 spray on all my plants for treating copper rust, powdery mildew and other diseases. I never had a problem with leaves being burned up. The only leaves which turn gray and dry out are the ones infected with disease, while the rest are completely fine. I think hydrogen peroxide does more damage to the leaves which are already damaged by disease. Diseased leaves start sizzling after being sprayed, which is a sign that cells are dying (both parasite and plant cells), while healthy leaves don't sizzle.
