Damping Off Of 
Seedlings 
Seed planted in boxes and 
frames are subject to a fungus 
disease known as “damping off.” 
The seedlings fall oyer as though 
pinched at the base of the stem. 
There is no cure for the plants 
affected. 
To prevent damping off: 
Avoid sowing seed too thickly. 
Water seed pans from below. 
Never water in late afternoon. 
Give plenty of air and sunshine.
