fdd's starting early ----- Outdoor '08

[nowstopwhining]

if I were you, I would use the sulfur burner and canopy method. My master gardener friend had PM two years ago, infested half of his plants in like two days, and he said that it worked like a charm (though it does stunt growth, and he doesn't recommend doing it once they are deep into the flower cycle).
Money=Greed..... and greed is the most destructive power that I know to come out of fear... I must admit the I am susceptible just like everyone else to this weakness. My Cinderella is Female! cheers....

thats what I was sayin

i went to the hydro store and bought some of this ...... Hydroponics : Safer Gro Mildew Cure, 1 Quart
it's gonna kill my bugs but i'm sure they will repopulate.

give up on Ed already?

Guess no one had milk.


Or chopped liver....

the stuff i bought you dilute with water and it cost half the price. ed's stuff cost twice as much and says to use straight. i had to go with the better deal. i think they are both close to the same thing. i may have been able to dilute the zero but it says it's not needed. dude at hydro store said the stuff i bought runs "hot" so to mix it weak. i think it will go a lot further.



milk sounds nasty.

who cares how it sounds .. it smells awful!

wait, but i thought you already bought ed's stuff. you take it back, or you just don't want to have to buy more for the whole crop?

Got any pics of the powdery mildew? Can it kill the plant if left untreated?

at this point it doesn't hurt much. what happens is all the stems of the fan leaves get it on it. then the plant flowers and the buds grow over these leaf stems. then in the fall when it rains or there is heavy day time fog the mildew explodes up along the stems and gets all over the buds. so if i kill it now i won't have it later.

In the worst case, it covers the leaves and chokes out the plant by blocking light and preventing photosynthesis. The foliage yellows and dies. It spreads rapidly and kills all foliage. No foliage, no food. No food, no plant.

As I mentioned, Ive seen squash and watermelon go from flourishing to compost in less than two weeks.

Well, if you didn't create so much shade with all that damned foliage, it wouldn't be so much of a problem ....

Your green thumb will be your down fall

 

[nepali grizzly]

Well good thing you caught it early than. I think I might have some on 1 plant but I thought it was dirt on the leaves, now its gone bright yellow and may be too late. If space is getting to be a huge problem you could always rent a tree transplanter and move 1 or 2 of them

fuck you're in trouble. that's probably botrytis, not PM. first thing to do is remove everything affected ... stay on top of it because it moves fast. keep everything as dry as possible. Anything that will kill it you don't want on your buds. Good luck. Watch it post-harvest too - once you remove your nugs, it will still spread.
