black stuff on leaves


Question

ficas leaves
I get black stuff, powder like, on some of my plant leaves.  It has always just been on my amaryllis leaves, and I wash with soap %26 water. It's kind of hard to wash off. Now it is on my ficas tree leaves. Too many leaves to wash! Might you know what is and what causes it?  Plants are in pots, on a screened in porch in Florida.

Answer
Hi Carol you have sooty mold on your plants.  Yes, you can wash it off but you need to keep doing it.  Poor air circulation can cause this problem on porches.  You can try Atomic Grow to make your plant healthy and it will make the mold go away.  It is organic and can be used on all your plants for all your plant problems.  kathy
