Hi All.
Very long time since I posted anything here. . . . .I have searched a bit but couldn't find any answers to my question about fungal diseases in the grow beds affecting plant growth. I have struggled with my tomatoes losing leaves and just dying, also my cucumbers (I suspect the salt for that one) and my watermelons get to cricket ball size and shrivel up and go black.
So my conundrum is this. . . .does anyone "rest" their growbeds? I rotate my crops and companion plant where I can, but I am wondering if I need to be sterilizing my media in the beds from time to time to help out with fungal spores in the water? I thought about spreading the media out on black plastic in the sun, but then thought maybe boiling it in a 44 gallon drum for a few minutes. Any thoughts on the idea?
Cheers
Andrew
