Gardening > Damping-off Disease
Seedlings, especially those grown in a greenhouse are susceptible to this disease. The seedlings wilt, fall over and die. The problem can be avoided by allowing ventilation during damp weather and avoiding overcrowding of the seedlings. Sow the seeds sparsely and thin out as early as possible in order to keep the seedlings healthy.
