Question from
Matt D-W
I stored them in the shed (with windows) at the end of November with green bags (I cannot remember the name of them, bought from a garden store to protect plants) I took the bags off to check the plants over and have noticed that the leaves have gone very dull in colour and there are mould spots. Does anyone know why this is? And how I can get rid of it?
