PowderyMildew at WK6 question....

[OvergrowDaWorld]

Can I dip the branches/flowers into a bath of H2o2, rinse in clear water, then put back into the room to finish, at WK6 of flower?
OR.... should I wait till harvest to clean any PM off?

 

[paladin420]

Neither works well ime.
Really need a good rinse after dunking harvested buds.
Can u spray PH'd upped water(8.0) on them now and let it run off?
Hit up Krunchbubles eagle 20 thread.e20 is NOT for buds!!!
Just about every remedy is some where in that thread. Chem or natural

You need to understand that PM is a systemic problem. Wiping off the white powder might heal the symptoms, but it will not affect the cause. It's quite a bit like trying to heal a gunshot wound with gauze.

 

[symbiote420]

Actually PM is not a systemic prob ....the online community/forums keeps spreading that li'l rumor around to the point it's accepted as fact but it's just not true! PM exist everywhere around us but needs the right conditions to exist for it to take control it can and usually will rear it's ugly face. Get your grow room conditions dialed in better, like more air circ, keeping humidity under 55% after lites out, and keeping dust from settling on your gals are some steps you can take, another cause for PM is a weakened plant like one that's under some kinda pest attack, ex. Root aphids or maybe something else that can vector pathogens/disease thru biting the plant or roots like gnat larvae, thrips, etc.

What works for me is a full blast wet down of the entire plant with plain water, it is lethal to PM, just do at the beginning of lights on so the buds have time to dry out and you don't risk getting bud rot ....I've also used GreenCure up to wk 7, just wet em down a few times before harvest like stated above!

Temps dipped down to 62* at night w/ a RH of 60% for a week.
It was my fault.
Temps/RH are fixed. I sprayed 3x with fatfree milk/water and tap water 1x at a high ph.

The PM is holding steady but its still here and there. Im harvesting a week early so Ill wait till harvest, dip each branch in H2o2, then rinse in water.
I need to know if I can do this now and put them back in the room to finish for 2 weeks.

 

[Jomofo]

I have used 25% h202 and mixed 30ml/L of water and sprayed and sprayed just lean your buckets over so the run off don't get down your roots too much, if you let too strong h202 get in soil it will wilt by next day, but you want to stop any more spread with 2 weeks left your resin has time to come back, I have had to do exactly what your going through before. it is always suggested you only do one bucket till you see the results for yourself, too make sure its right treatment and you do right too.

 

[MrGoodBudz]

Ya high alkaline water is the safest bet at that stage of flower. Good luck man pm sucks :/

 

[OvergrowDaWorld]

OK guys. Im getting advice all over the map.
FatFree milk/water.
High PH water.
Dont use high ph water or it will get worse.
Spray with H2O2 then rinse.
Dunk plant in bath of H2O2, then rinse.
Chop and start over.
Harvest a wk early.
Wait till after harvest and dunk each branch in H2O2, then rinse.

Ill figure it out on my own. Ill let yall know what I did and if it worked. Thanx for tryin to help.

Today at lamps on, I will spray them 1 more time with a high ph tap water of 9.0 - 10.0 ph and see if that works in 24 hours. If it doesnt....
I'll make a H2o2 bath for the flowers, dunk and rinse each branch 1 by 1 and harvest in 2 wks.
Thats alot of work but worth not loosing 45% of my crop. Milk hasnt eliminated it. High ph water hasnt eliminated it.
Only thing left to do. Ill try it on the 2 worst hit plants and wait 24 hours. When lights come on Ill check em out. If it works out, Ill do the rest of the plants at lamps on the next day.

NATURAL Power Mold reduction

NATURAL Power Mold reduction

On Free Weed w/ Danny Danko Podcast, one of the panelists said to break down a healthy leaf and rub it on the stem and it would clear up Mold and PM issues. WOW!! i was VERY skeptical but it works if you stay up on it WEEKLY through flower. I PROMISE. live at the beach 50-80% humidity is regular so PM & mold is a big deal out here. :tip hat:

 

[OvergrowDaWorld]

I sprayed with the high PH. I soaked em good! Still no change.
24hrs later.....
I then made a 5gln bucket of 9.0+ ph water and Hydrogen Peroxide. only 1/2 a bottle per 5glns water.
I dipped the entire branch of flowers under the water, then shook em out real good.
Then put them in the sink and rinsed off each branch with extra cold water.
I put a fan on them in the flower room to air out. I did 5 plants as a test.
We'll see how it did today at lights on.

The PM isnt on the fan leaves at all. Its only on the suger leaves in the flowers. Only where theres crystals.
Not alot. Just spotty here and there on every Strawberry Dogshit phenos #2 and #3 and abit on my GrandoggyPurps purse pheno.
The SDS#1 - Strawberry/Lime pheno only got barely touched by it. Nothing to even really mention.
The Power Kush from Dinafem didnt get touched at all.
Its week 7 and only 1 - 2 wks left. I'm prob gonna harvest a wk early though. Kinda scared to flush.
Im still gonna wash/rinse each harvested branch in a much stronger solution of H2o2, to clean it up even better, just incase.

WOW!
Thats some of the nastiest shit you could have used during flower!
WOW!
You should just toss those plants in the trash!
Congratulations! You win the worst advice ever award!
Enjoy your tainted buds!
Please bring back the not helpful button!
I cant give neg rep til 1000 posts!
Why the fuck would you use something with a pesticide in it also?
Thats just fucking ridiculous!

 

[OvergrowDaWorld]

Im glad I didnt take that advice....huh coconutz?
Bayer asperin has pestacides in it? Nasty!

 

[frankenstein2]

Green cure will work on flowering plants that deep into flower. I have used it half strength with great success. As far as I know it's one of the only products safe to use on flowering plants nearing harvest. Don't use it full strength or it will burn the pistils and slow your plants down.

 

[OvergrowDaWorld]

Ill get some today while Im at the store.
There isnt alot of PM. Just tiny spots here and there. But its only on the suger leaf on the buds.
I cut that shit off anyways. I just wont make dry sift with it. Ill toss it out.
I have to see how the dip went yesterday when lights come on tonight.
Hopefully it killed any PM on them. If not then Ill mix up 1/3rd strength GreenCure.
When I harvest them in a week or 2, Im gonna wash off every bud just incase.
I dont want any contaminates on the flowers at all. If theres even a chance there is, they get tossed in the garbage!

 

[Coconutz]

No, its no aspirin...
Its two systemic chemicals and a contact killer!
Imid, tau-fluvalinate & tebuconazole.
Probably stays in the plant for 180 days or some crazy shit.
One thing is for sure... Its gonna kill just about anything it touches!
Peace

 

[OvergrowDaWorld]

Thanx bro.

 

[BredForMeds]

that's the problem with internet. there is no source of info.. that's completely correct 100% of the time.

try the one from the uk , it has tebucunazole ,deltamethrin .none of the other crap you mention.i can put a picture of the bottle up if you still claim bullshit . it does say, the only reason not to spray while plants are in flower is to stop it from damaging bee's .as i do not have bee's this is not a problem to me !
