Default A Little Powdery Mildew Two Weeks Until Harvest...
I have been battling mildew for a little bit now, it was well under control but a few days ago I noticed on the buds of a few plants. I bought SuperNatural Soya'Nara... it's a mildew\pest spray. When is the best time to spray the buds... right before the lights go on I am guessing? I'm gonna go easy, the last thing I need is mold but do you guys spray this deep into flower?

The product itself is not harmful at all if smoked, it's basicly just soy bean oil but I am a little concerned about getting the plants wet. Supposedly this shit will kill the mildew within 24 hours though. Any experiences?

P.S Should I kinda shake\dry them off after the solution has been on the flowers for 20-30 mins or just let it be?

Hi - I'm a newbie to indoor and I have the same concerns.

I am 98 % successful with neem oil but I am terrified that when I hang my stuff to dry in a dark place it will take overand there will be nothing I can do.

Have you found any info?????? you can email me direct at peaceriver7@sbcglobal.net

most important thing about controlling powder mildew is to increase the amount of air exchange and keep the humidity as near to 40% as possible.

sulphur based products will sort it, but will make your buds taste awful.

the best is probably pine oil, it is organic and biodegradable and sorts the problem with out affecting taste

But beware, you may think you have it licked, but mildew can infect plants for weeks without showing any signs of infection.

good luck

we have plenty of air circulation going on and humidity is up right now ...still just found the stuff on my ladies and i'm a few weeks from harvest. should we try spraying with milk and if so, will it be a problem a couple of weeks out? we're in a progressive room with lots of circ, turing air over every 3 minutes. how can i get my humidity down with this kind of circ?

I also have probs with P.M. every so often. Not lately though. A good way to not get it is to do some PREVENTATIVE stuff, like using a sulfur spray once or twice in veg to make sure it doesnt take.

The problem with P.M. is, once you can see it, it's already IN your plants. It takes two weeks to become visible, and it is systemic, meaning the fibers go INTO the leaf tissue and actually start circulating through the plant. Only one thing kills P.M.

Well, one thing besides Sulfur....

Its called Serenade Spray, and it contains a fungus called Bacilis subtilis, or something like that. Anyway, it eats P.M., and you can use it up until harvest, I believe. And, the good thing about it is soon as it gets rid of the fungus, it dies off without hurting the plants.

OK People, do NOT do any type of pest or mold control just before lights on... ALWAYS just before lights off !!! and this late in flower u might do sulphur burn, but i wouldnt spray anything on them the last 30 days.... good luck and keep growing !! Peace
