pm on my beautiful buds 3 weeks until harvest

Can I kill all the mildew spores alone with just high temps and spraying peroxide wherever I can? I'm using eagle 20 to prevent anymore outbreaks, I just need to kill all the spores I can.

If you're asking about surrounding areas, you can use the E20 for that, too. I wouldn't, but it would work. You can also use rubbing alcohol and the peroxide, I don't know how effective bleach is on the spores, but also Physan 20 would be effective here.

Thanks for all your advice. My harvest is done so I just went ahead and heated up the whole room to 100 degrees and let it sit for a good half hour to an hour. Then I just sprayed whatever I could with half 3% peroxide and half water. I sprayed all my plants with eagle 20 and hopefully I will never see pm again. What do you think?

sounds good, clean well, spray again, rinse, repeat.

3% mixed half with water isn't strong enough to ensure disinfection. Take SM's advice and use bleach at least. Physan with an atomizer/sprayer is the best choice I feel personally.

I have to agree with Burning Tree, I think you could have gone full strength with the peroxide, easily.

Im going to redo the room, this time with straight 3% peroxide. Is the physan 20 safe to use in a bedroom closet grow? It will be sprayed on carpet where I will be sitting on, and things I will be touching with my bare hands. Its cheap and I think I'm going to order a bottle. It does say its environmentally safe.

 

[Yustoopit]

I forgot to state that I cant use bleach because it might bleach my carpets and whatever I have in the room that might be damaged.

 

[SeaMaiden]

Then use isopropyl alcohol where you cannot use bleach.

Yep some would say safer than bleach. Even safe to use on the plants as well. Take a look at there website. I noticed they changed their instructions and added this peculiar sentence at the end of the hydroponics section:

Physan 20 as a Foliar Spray for Pathogen Control

Physan 20 can be applied to plants as a foliar spray to control pathogens. However, it is NOT an insecticide and will not kill aphids, mites, scale, or pests of this sort. Physan 20 leaves no harmful residue if foliage is dried and smoked.

Thanks I have some of that sitting in my cabinet. No mixing of water just straight iso alcohol?

Thanks I was thinking about ordering a bottle earlier but if alcohol works Im going to go the cheaper route.

So how does this sound. When my grow is done, I wash and spray with water/h2o2 as much as I can in the room. This includes walls, carpets, and whatever I can. Then Ill bomb the room with a fungicide one day. Then turn my exhaust off and let the temps in my room get 100 degrees for another day. After that just use some kind of spray and keep my grow room environment in check (temps, humidity, air circulation) to prevent another outbreak?

isnt high temps a bad thing? wouldnt u wana lower temps ? if anything?

Usually yes but supposedly temps 100 degrees and above kills the pm spores. PM actually likes temps cooler, like in the 70s.

For this application, I would not add water. I would use it straight. This method was recommended to me by a surgeon last year post-op for cleaning up some of the medical devices I had to use for bathing and such. I didn't want to have to have that surgery again, so I was hyperfocused on infection control.
