Mold? Fungus? What do I do?

Theres a great write up on how to eliminate powdery mildew on my home site. I just had to take care of a PM situation for a friend last week. I think I'd rather have PM than spider mites. I'll say that much lol.

the best way to get rid of mold on plants is to use a 10% milk 90% water mix. you can even use thiswhen in bud. spray the whole infected plant, even if you dont see it on some leaves.
what kind of milk? skim? 2%? does fat mean anything?

ph the water?

i am visioning spraying the plant down with a spray bottle and having the leaves dripping this solution...is this right?

The mix works good to nip the mold already in, but a great efficiency way to run higher humidity and keep the mold curbed is a high UV air scrubber. It kills the mold in the air as well as other bacteria that can cause smells and such. The guy making those Growbars in your grow is also the guy that found the one I use. Ask him where he got it and I am sure he would help. It just plugs into a wall socket and cycles the air covering not only the grow area, but the entire room it’s in. As long as I have run this thing running the mold has never come back and the room smells fresh at the same time no matter where my humidity is. High Tech makes it easier in this case.
