Hi,
Does anyone knows what caused my bitter melon leaves with these kinds of spots. Also the papaya plant leaves has similar leaf disease. It is same thing happened last year as well. I have attached picture for more information. Please provide any remedies / precautions I need to take in future.
Regards
Praveen
Hi Praveen (@PraveenS1),
The issues seem to indicate some type of fungal disease, and a copper-based fungicide like Multicrop Kocide Blue should assist. I'd suggest it might be a bit late this year, but if you apply it at the first signs of infection next year, you should be able to keep it under control. Also, only water at the base of the plant and not over the leaves and this disease often stems from wet and humid conditions.
Let me mention a couple of our horticulturists, @Adam_W and @Noelle, to see if they can offer their expert advice.
