How to Identify Rust Damage
Rust diseases come in different varieties and can affect a wide range of plants. People often struggle with rust on their roses. It is easy to remember the defining characteristics of this fungus, as they match its name. Rust plant disease will look similar to the rust that appears on that old bicycle in the shed.
- Look for yellow or white spots forming on the upper leaves of a plant.
- Look for reddish to orange blister-like swellings called pustules on the undersides of leaves.
- Orange or yellow spots or streaks appear on the undersides of the leaves.
- Within these spots that form are spores.
- Usually leaf distortion and defoliation occur.

I have some of the same questions that were already asked, has anyone answered them? I don't see any answers.
I had some useful plants at the corner of my greenhouse and I found rust appearing on the leaves. These are really unstoppable and damaged almost all leaves within 2 months. New leaves also shown some sign of new rust. Later, as the plants are at the corner of my greenhouse some leaves grown outside the greenhouse and surprisingly they are healthy. I moved all the plants to sun, removed the damaged leaves and later 1 month all are with new rust-free

Is Mallow rust (or any of these rusts) safe to consume? I just learnt a neat Mallow recipe I wanted to try but they've gotten rusty the past couple weeks

Try adjusting the quantity of light. If indoors take them out if outside place a cloth on top as covering you can use a mosquito net.
Try also watering using pipes to avoid splashing fungi from the soil to the plant leaves.
Try mulching with wood ash or dry grass.

How to clear the flower leaf RUST FUNGI...
Should the soil be replaced in the planters that had rust?
We have had very wet weather lately in Maryland and my pepper plants have rust spots. The first flowers are just beginning to appear. I have removed all leaves that show signs of rust - the younger leaves seem fine at the moment.. There are some black marks on the stem at the joints. Some nearby tomato plants have some leaf distortion but no rust spots. Should I remove the pepper plants, spray with a fungicide or wait and see what happens?
