Q.Can I Eat My Purple Sprouting/broccoli Even If They Have Been Affected By The White Blister Disease

Zone Mount Martha 3934 Victoria | Marie Sabrina Brook added on October 16, 2021 | Answered

I found some white powdery like stuff under the leaves and the florets of my purple sprouting/broccoli have an odd shape. They look bigger than the normal heads. What would be the best way to get rid of this disease?

Unfortunately, your photos did not come through. I will be unable to diagnose your issue. Generally, diseases will come from overly wet soils, or insects. I would look to those issues, first.

Plant diseases cannot spread to humans. It will be safe to consume the plants, but they may not taste good.
