Hey whats up everyone, I have some issues going with my girls. I have powdery mildew beginning to develop. Some type of weird bugs infesting my girls. PH problems. Yellow dots forming on leaves for no apparent reason. Last but not least, lower buds are browning for no reason.

What is the quickest way to raise PH organically?

How should I control powdery mildew organically?

Why are my lower buds browning?

Why are there weird looking yellow specs on my leaves?



Heres the yellow spots?

They look really, really wet. Is it the climate there, or are you soaking them? Looks like overwatering to me... If it's just the local climate then your best bet is to go with a strain that tolerates wet conditions.

They look like a spit-bugs to me. There's a site called whatsthatbug (dot com I think) where you might be able to ID them.

Powdery mildew can be controlled by using milk, about a 10% dilution.

The plant that died from the bottom up, she looked hungry and light-starved to me. The spots may be mobile nutrient issues, are you feeding them at all? They actually look alright, I don't think outdoor growers can ever hope for flawless leaves. If you think you're giving these girls a complete round of nutrients and that there are no micronutrient issues with the plot where they're growing, then I'd just wait them out. I can't help you at all with the bud that's turning brown.

If you do decide to start or change feeding, my best advice is to start light and go slow.

Spray. I definitely don't have those problems as the mountains are quite (almost too) dry. I found it doing some Googling one day, though, and it seems pretty straightforward.

I don't recollect that from what I'd read, but if so then that's problematic for most of us in the U.S. There are other ways of dealing with powdery mildew, involving building a fumigation tent I believe.

Thank you for the info. I will try the milk. Though after raining all day yesterday I cant see anything as of this morning. But Im sure its still there. Stuff spreads fast. I will be on around the clock watch.
