Ageratum Bumble can be susceptible to powdery mildew, botrytis, and rust, especially during humid nights and cool days. Take these preventative steps to protect your plants:

1. Water at the base of each plant in the morning and allow the soil to dry between waterings. Don't allow the plants to wilt. 

2. Provide good airflow in your greenhouse. We recommend using horizontal airflow fans. Space containers so air can reach the soil level of each plant.

3. Grow plants in full sun.

4. Use a fungicide if needed.

We recommend planting one rooted liner per 1801 cell or 4-inch container. Use well-drained soil and completely bury the ellepot in the center of the container. Cell packs finish in 6-7 weeks.
