yeah, thats why im only running four plants, the plants are huge.. potential QP+ plants. An attempt to prevent Powder Mold cuz normal I was running more little plants and I thought this may have been why I was getting mold but now i am just convinced its the strain itself. I put this same strain outside and it also has PM this is not normal especially this time of year and outside...
Aw dude i totally forgot..i use to get powdery mildew issue's and now i use Hygrozyme and honestly haven't had it since i started using it..i also keep my humidity lower and give plants more space.

Hygrozyme is a highly refined enzymatic cleaner/facilitator for dead matter. Keeping in mind that it is sterile and inert, Hygrozyme cannot kill anything. Its key role therefore is to act as a prophylactic. Many leaf borne diseases like Black Spot, of Powdery Mildew flourish in the presence of dead matter. Transferred by humans, macro organisms or air borne arrival, these diseases can set in quickly when in the presence of dead matter. The regular use of Hygrozyme can be a deterrent by removing dead matter and at the same time fostering the presence of beneficial micro organisms on leaf surfaces and in the grow medium or hydroponic solution. This is especially the case in combination with compost extracts that contain micro protagonists. For best results it should be used right from the start of a clean system to maintain those conditions. Applications at a rate of 1.5 ml per 1 litre are sufficient.

Eagle 20 can be used to kill it. You can use it in veg when you water at the recommended dose or PM will become immune, its a systemic. Greencure is good to use when youre flowering.

Yea seriously.lol
Milk is another very effective spray for powdery mildew. Mix the milk at a ratio of one part of milk to nine parts of water and spray weekly. Do NOT go higher than 3 milk to 9 water or you’ll attract other fungus problems that want to feed on the milk. Skim milk works well as it contains no fat to turn rancid (and attract other problems that like the smell of rotting fats.)

How does milk control powdery mildew?

Scientist aren't 100% sure how milk works to control this disease. It seems that milk is a natural germicide. In addition, it contains several naturally occurring salts and amino acids that are taken up by the plant. From previous experiments using sodium bicarbonate, potassium phosphate, and other salts, researchers have found that the disease is sensitive to these salts. It is possible then, that milk boosts the plant's immune system to prevent the disease.

Vaporizes sulpher in your room. I burn it for an hour every day before the lights go on. That way i know my fan is off.
Your gonna have to spray them at least twice. Once in veg and once early flowering.
Dehum is good and so is an AC. both bring the humidity down. draw back is power. and ac is only on in the day.
