| I would like to share seeds of a neat squash that came up in my garden, but my cucurbit patch is plagued with powdery mildew. Can it be transmitted through seeds? I don't want to transmit it to another location, especially a friend's garden. Thanks. |

| Hi Mary, No you don't need to worry about it. Powder Mildew is a fungus that rears its ugly head in the right weather conditions. It won't affect the seeds. If it was a virus, that would be another story. Remy |

| Hi Remy, Thanks for your reply. I'm just back on garden web. I got the same answer from a university extension specialist, so I shared my seeds with my friend. Thanks again. Mary |
