Ive got a outside plant that has mildew on it its next to the house gets sun in the morning?

If it only gets sun in the morning, and you are watering it some other time, there may be enough time in the damp and dark for mildew to arise. If you can change when you water to just before morning, that may help.



You can also get sprays that are supposed to kill mildew. You have to use them regularly for about a week or so I think, but if you do, they work pretty well.

I don't know where you live or the type of plant but it may not be mildew. There is a black powdery deposit left by an insect. Here in south Louisiana I have it on my citrus trees, gardenias, and crepe myrtles. Once you get rid of the bugs you can rather easily clean the moldy looking residue.
