Growing this year up here in Western NY sure has been a Challenge. The cloudy wet August allowed Powdery Mildew to set in which I’ve managed to fight off pretty good. I have about two weeks left til harvest and were looking at 70-90 percent humidity the next few days and it has me a bit worried about bud rot. Any suggestions? Plants are in 5 gallon fabric pots on the back picnic table.

Increase airflow if you can and spray a dilute peroxide/water mix as a prophylaxis against mold every couple of days.

What everyone else said. Also, if you can keep the morning dew off of them somehow that could help. Or dry them out 1st thing in the AM.
