Well I think i have found a solution to horsetail problems.
The common horsetail plant, which is very invasive, is rich in silicon and helps plants to resist fungal diseases via increasing their light absorbing capabilities. Horsetail is one of the ingredients in Golden Harvest Fertilizer. You can use horsetail tea on seedlings and plants in closed environments too!
To make: In a glass or stainless steel pot, mix 1/8 cup of dried leaves in 1 gallon of unchlorinated water. Bring to a boil, then let simmer for at least 1/2 hr. Cool and strain.
Store extra concentrate in a glass container. Will keep for a month.
Dilute this mix, adding 5- parts of unchlorinated water to one part concentrate.
Spray plants once every 1-2 weeks
Apparently it is used for fungus and rust.
Has anybody tried this ?
