Non-Chemical Management
- Rotate crops. Do not plant beans in the same location each year.
- Remove plant debris from the garden. Destroy or discard (do not compost) diseased materials.
- Space plantings to provide good air circulation and reduce humidity.
- Avoid overhead watering, especially during and after the bloom period.
- Irrigate only in the morning, so plants can dry during the day.
