    Yes, regular dishwashing liquid in a spray bottle diluted. spray on once a day for a few days. All the best for your garden.

    Dishwasher soaps are strong... better go with toilet soap or mild shampoo.

    For removing fungus.. you just have to stir the top layer soil and bring the fresh soil outside... keep it in sun for a day or two.. avoid over watering the plants.

    Dishwasher liquid is not necessarily strong. It would depend on the brand. Besides, you need to dilute, you cannot spray undiluted solution.

    Just thought of updating this thread with the Vegetables I grew in my backyard this Summer! Hurray...couldn't be any happier with the results so far, just thrilled that I could get some gardening done too!

    @Srama and @Satchitananda - you go girls, I took inspiration from both of your garden pics and tips posted here.
