hey,

i was spraying my plants with baking soda, because i heard it helps control powdery mildew.

after spraying there is clearly a lot of baking soda on the plant after the water evaporated, it looks like baking soda was sprinkled all over the plants

now the plants are developing these orange/yellow burning spots and leaves are curling up.

i should rinse the baking soda off right?

anyone had a similar situation and found a solution to this?

thanks

Try rinsing it off and then read more. Personally I’ve never heard anyone recommend sodium bicarb for treating anything but pH.
