Do not over-fertilise (especially not too much nitrogen) as succulent growth is particularly susceptible The majority of the growth of most powdery mildews is found on the plant surface. The fungus sends feeding structures into the surface cells, greatly reducing the vigour of the plant. Because of this surface growth, powdery mildews are even more influenced by the environment than other plant diseases. Choosing the right plant for the right place, along with some simple measures to adjust the environment can go a long way to minimising powdery mildew issues in gardens. The spores of the fungus are spread by rain-splash, and warm, wet conditions are ideal for infection. In the Mediterranean such conditions occur in autumn and winter, but in the UK temperatures during spring and summer are more suitable. Spray at the first signs of disease and repeat every ten to twenty one days depending on disease levels.
