Can we please make a Sticky for Powdery Mildew, Bud Rot, etc... - Page 13 - Cannabis Infirmary - International Cannagraphic Magazine Forums

Well everyone is entitled to an opinion right? I've battled I think just about everything. Bugs are child's play, powdery mildew is the true plague, it is in the plant and you can't kill it, it's in the cells. The white dust is the way it travels to a new host. Every time I got it was from bringing in clones from someone else, you normally can't see it on a clone. The only real cure is to tear the room down and soak everything down in mold spray, then bleach. Every nook and cranny on everything, even then you can't be positive you got every microscopic spore. Start from seed and hope for the best, never bring another clone in from somewhere else. It's the same as bugs in that it came into your room from somewhere, it just didn't materialize from nothing.

Can anyone confirm, when bud rot spores start flying ?
I think you're kind of ok cutting everthing infected away as long as it's still white. As soon as the fungus turns dark the spores are ripe and get released ?
any insight anyone?
I'm after the point in developement where it starts affecting the whole crop... or until when you can effecively remove bud rot by cutting it aways.

hey chevy u should cut infected plant matter as soon as it appears you really dont want that spreading ...and yes when its black the spores are most active but they are also transmitted when fresh....try to lower your humidity it might help in the future and always clean your tools ....good luck

Thanks Vince I did exactly that.
Worked out, not further spreading and no rot in the drying buds either.
All good.

Cheers,

I think thats the first thing to do when you see PM
after reading the whole thread it appears to me that many people seem to treat their plants with different stuff without removing infected plant parts.

You really have to remove every plant part that shows visible signs of an infestation before you treat your plants.

Organicide/oils maybe fine in veg, but not in flower. Sulpher and Zone/Penetrator in my opinion are the best options till about week 4-5. With milk being good for late flowering when you just want to hold it down without damaging anything.

Way old post but I spray plants weekly with organicide for mites and also burn sulfer weekly... no issues with leaf burn ever and definitely no pm.

The mildew is as common here as other various mold and lichens. when it blooms hard (around 3 months of the year, in june and september/oct i believe) it is just impossible to contain without a lot of investment in build. and Air control.

for cheep options it's been said to do habanero seed and garlic sprouts soak's

served fresh and fermented teas through 36 hours (removing seeds and diluting it towards the end)

the tea should be good all the way to harvest

I have always had great results with sovran.

Pm is one off the pro growers nightmares and can only be completely eradicated by shuting down disposing of infected plants cleaning your site and air ducting completely and starting fresh with clean plants once a plant has the pm it can't be removed only treated and kept under control the best thing to do is make shore u never get it in the first place silicate treatment works grate for strengthening your plants to prevent it from showing up be careful of bringing clones into your clean op it my have pm and not be showing green cure works ok but treatments should be switched up from one to another so your pm strain dosnt bild resistence to a particular spray if you plan on fighting it for the long run good luck this stuff sucks
