yo yo RIU! just checked out some of my outdoor organic Purple Kush x Purple Romulan Oracle and they are doing very well. all of them around 5 feet tall. but on one of them i noticed what was some powdery mildew! im 100 positive! check out the pictures and let me know. it still has about 3 more weeks right? or how long?

and should i spray the foliage with water and baking soda or should i try the milk spray. please get back to me before the mildew takes over my mary!


thanks RIU,

they look good, they could go for a long time i suppose. I'd wait for 3 weeks and judge then on how much longer. As for the mildew/mold I've successfully used the baking soda with water option a few times and it has worked. However it has came back but i keep on top of that shit. I've never heard the milk option but i'm open to any ideas. If you go the baking soda option foliar spray it at least 3 days in a row. I also gave them some flowering nutes in the spray when i was at it.

i used to have problems with that on my outdoor plants but it never affected my buds. i cant tell but its not on your buds is it?

it looks like you got another 3-4 weeks to go with flowering though. how long have you had them so far?

I would'nt use baking soda or milk, just think of it this way in a few weeks your gonna dry and smoke those buds the smell of milk deosnt leave the plant. For white powdery mildow i would go with Physan 20, you can get it at your local hydro store for average 7 bucks. If you happen to use advanced nutes and you have some Wet Betty Lying around add acap full of that, spray your plants with it good, then repeat every 10days to Treat and prevent powdery mildew works like a charm! I swear by this method

Start with a simple homemade soap spray. A couple of drops of dishwashing liquid in a spray bottle full of water.

Plants look good otherwise.

Good growing and good luck.

how often should i spray it, its just on the foliage right not at the top
Directly apply it right on the affected spot. I start with soap spray because it is cheap and easy.

It's mild enough that you can use it whenever it is needed. As I wrote previously, it is not resilient as rain will wash it away.

it will spread so be careful. YOu need to use a fungicide, water/soap wont work! Trust me, I speak from experience
