CleanLight promises Powdery Mildew and Bud Mold control without chemicals - Cannabis Business News - International Cannagraphic Magazine Forums

I have discovered the CleanLight unit to prevent bud mold and powdery mildew. It actually works. I have tested it on some Purple Kush (mildew kush!!). No mildew. I believe that this technology will become the "go-to" way of dealing with these problems, without the use of any chemicals. I also believe that this is a good business opportunity.

UVB boosting degrades THC. I think that's probably the main reason these aren't usually used commercially. If you're advertising for home use I think this is probably the wrong subforum.

Molds are generally caused by high RH/overcrowding/poor circulation and can generally be avoided with competent growing practices.

Is the product more effective than a UV scrubber on the air intake? Any product data?

What are YouTube opinions on using it during veg to make plant Hardy.

I find that I avoid these fungi by using mycorrizae, & tricoderma, and other beneficials. Start by establishing mycorrizae on seedlings/clones. Once they are established, add trichoderma, which in my case is unnecessary, as coco already has plenty of trichoderma. Micorrizae is Lightwarrior seed starter mix in solo cups. When cups are filled with roots, transplant to coco, and the two work symbiotically. If you start them together, the trichoderma will eat the mycorrizae before they get established. Other bennies can be added to prevent harmful fungi. Have never had them using these methods.

My pm and mite issues disappeared when u paid more attention to the rh/circulation/spacing exactly like you called it.

For emergency use I prefer Mighty Wash by NPK Technology. It's 99.85% snake oil but sooo effective...

Funny I thought the real solution was using genetics resistant to PM and Botrytis, as long as they are used, specially for breeding purposes, and if around they will be used to breed with, PM and Botrytis will continue to be a problem, one that did not existed or hardly before the WLD Indica introduction in the late 60's early 70's. Use resistant varieties, it is easy if you try.
Boycott PM variety clones, do not grow then more then once.
My 2 cents worth.....

WLD?

Essential oils, and plant based teas will do it naturally.

There are so many anti-fungal plants out there it is crazy.

These are uv-c lights not uvb. and they work miraculously. The only suggestion that I give is to foliar spray them with a product like actinovate, serenade, or tea after using because they kill all the hyphae and spores present, both good and bad. More people don't use them because they only recently became available to the public in the states. The first people I seen selling them was over seas by serious seeds. And only in the states in the past year by a company in Maine. There popularity is growing, a great part of an IPM strategy.
