Powdery mildew help!

I have a super skunk growing outside from a seed someone gave me and she has been in bloom for about 3 weeks. I noticed this afternoon that she has powdery mildew starting about halfway down the plant on some bud leaves and some down below it.

We've had real nice weather here humidity wise except for the last two days, which I suspect is the culprit.

I know about baking soda and water but I also have this spray called fungicde 3 by Garden Safe and it says its organic. (neem oil) but there is all kinds of precautionary shit on it, so I really dont want to use it.

I also already searched powdery mildew on this site but got no hits?

What do you all do? Any help is much appreciated.

Take off the leaves that it is manifesting on and spray it down with Serenade. You can buy it at the grow store. Once it manifests, you can't get rid of it, but you can control it. I would alternate Serenade and Neem Oil alternating weekly sprays. Just dilute the neem solution a bit. You could try a mixture of water and baking powder. Just be careful. I have friends that have hurt their plants with this. Find the right mix online or in a grow bible. I would honestly just go straight to Serenade and apply it as is recommended. This should help quite a bit. you might try removing some of the interior leaves to let more air flow through. I hope this helps.

i would use neem oil but start off with a very weak solution. just test it on a few leaves to make sure it dont burn. neem is an excellent fungicide
