Hey guys, after the big perth storm in a teacup about 4 days ago, my cucumbers have had a light white spot infection.

So I filled up my 500ml spray bottle with water and half a teaspoon of baking soda and sprayed them once a day top and bottom of all leaves.

Now, according to what I thought, that should of cleared it up by now, but it doesn't want to go away.

Any hints?

Plus, any idea what's going on with my strawberries?

Thanks gurus! You're all life savers
