Plant Disease
Plant diseases or blights in a hydroponics garden are much less frequent
than in a dirt garden because there is no dirt to grow bacteria. Not to
mention the fact that many plant diseases travel to the plant from the
surrounding soil. Plant disease cannot occur without a host plant, a
pathogen and favorable environmental conditions.
We usually have to use a harsh chemical twice a season in my hydroponics garden in which case we cover the base of the plant and any open nutrient solution and spray sparingly.
A new approach to plant disease control is really a 'rediscovered' approach known as bio-fungicide. This is a method of attacking plant infection through the use of naturally occurring and unmodified bacteria and fungi. Here are some samples of plant disease :
