    Hi,

    I have grown Ocimum tenuiflorum at my home. It grew well for the past one year. Unfortunately, from the past few days, I have noticed the growth of fungus on the leaves, as can be seen in the attachment. Some leaves have turned yellow as well. The plant grows inside the room next to the window, so receives plenty of sunlight. Some yellow colored mushrooms were also noticed growing in the soil, but I pulled them out. I water as often as needed, and keep the soil moist all the time. Can you please tell me the treatment for the fungus? Thanks in advance! :)

    Fungicides are usually available at local gardening stores or nurseries. You can bring them some of the leaves to show them what specifically wrong with your plant, and they should know what to give you to help you out :)
