Often, tomatoes begin to suffer from fungal diseases soon after being transplanted into a greenhouse.

The bushes stop growing, begin to wither, and the lower part of the stem becomes thinner.

If tomatoes are withering in a greenhouse, you need to act. It is not necessary to use commercial fungicides for this. A suitable remedy can be found in your home medicine cabinet.

Potassium permanganate (manganese) is suitable for combating fungal diseases. To prepare a working solution, 500 mg of the product must be mixed in 100 ml of water.

The resulting liquid must be used to treat the affected plants. If there is no potassium permanganate, you can use hydrogen peroxide.

When using a spare product, the recipe looks like this: 2 tbsp. per 1 liter of water. To disinfect the plants, you need to spray the resulting solution.

To prevent tomatoes in a greenhouse from getting fungal diseases, you need to regularly ventilate the greenhouse.
