My backyard is covered with cement and I water my plants every day. The concrete is turning black with mildew??. What can I do to eliminate this unsightly condition and keep it from reoccuring?

0	Power washing or scrubbing with a stiff brush will remove the mildew but it will return as long as the concrete remains wet or gets wet on a daily basis. About the only way to stop it is to put trays beneath your plants so the excess water doesn't run out onto the cement. Wish there were a permanent solution!
