gray or brown to a dark purplish color. Lesions may be water soaked or grown together into a V-shaped
area.
Identification
Solutions
Leaf spots may develop on strawberries during damp weather
or if you use sprinklers. The severity can be reduced by
using drip or furrow irrigation instead
of sprinklers. Watch for the development of leaf spot diseases
during wet weather. Remove diseased leaves as soon as they
appear and destroy them. Removing all older leaves at the
end of each season also may be helpful in reducing carryover
of the pathogens. |
