Fusarium Wilt Control
Fusarium oxysporum, also known as tomato wilt or Fusarium wilt, is soil fungus which is common in greenhouse crops. Almost every crop has specific type Fusarium, but this fungus is mainly a problem in cucumber, pepper, tomato, pot plants and cut flowers.
Recognize Fusarium
Through small sores in the plant, the fungus penetrates inside. After that, it attacks the vessels and causes wilting, rotten roots and brown vascular bundles. These are often the first visible symptoms of Fusarium infestation. The resulting fungus spores can cause other plants to be re-infected. At an advanced stage the white mould aphid may turn pink due to the massive production of spores.
In addition to the visible infestation on the above-ground parts of the plant, the roots are also affected underground, which is where they will rot.
If you see a plant in the greenhouse that has been attacked by Fusarium oxysporum, remove it and place it directly in a sealed plastic bag. In this way you limit the chance that the fungus will come into contact with plants in other parts of the greenhouse.

Fusarium Prevention
It is very important to disinfect thoroughly after a Fusarium infestation during the crop rotation. This is because the fungus can survive for a long time in the soil and in crop residues, but also for example on the greenhouse stands. Also make sure that materials such as shears are properly cleaned and disinfected.
Make sure you have a resilient plant to give this weakness fungus no chance. Good soil structure is also important to give the fungus no chance.

Phytophthora, or Phytophthora root rot, is a mould which is difficult to control and damages tomatoes and peppers. The fungus is most common in warm and humid conditions. The traces quickly spread around the greenhouse. This increases the risk of contamination of large parts of the crop.
