You can get some control of this fungal disease with regular sprays of Copper Mixture from Vitax, but start early to protect the plants. Perhaps a better option is to grow cultivars which offer some resistance to the disease, such as; 'Crimson Crush' and 'Mountain Majic' for growing inside, or 'Lizzano' and 'Losetto' for outdoors.
