I've got a case of mildew that was on the leaves & stems of my gourds. I pruned out all the infected leaves, but the stems still have the mildew. What I need now is something that can help get rid of the mildew that is there now. Any ideas?

I used baking soda, vegetable oil and water in equal proportions (then diluted) to protect the good leaves. This remedy was from "eyes". But, I don't think this recipe works on the mildew that's already there.

Please help! The other plants are thriving, but if the mildew reaches them, they'll soon be gone, too :(
