Growing Silverbeet, also Swiss Chard or Mangold

View the Silverbeet page

17 Apr 09 Judy (Australia - temperate climate)
I've grown silverbeet quite a lot in the past, but in my new location on the Central Coast of NSW, I'm finding that it has a disease which looks like little brown dots/spots all over the leaf. Anyone know what this is please - could it be a fungus type problem? Thanks, help would be appreciated. I'm an organic grower, so any remedies need to be non-toxic. Thanks. Judy
