blah blah blah...home remedy this, my grandfather use to use blah, try a little of uhhhh...........just go an get yourself some GreenCure....its not some lame ass "lets just make it so we cant see the PM" remedy...it kills the PM...internally as well. I had PM really bad, for a long time...then I used GC, a few rotations later the moms and clones are PM free........I get such a kick out of peoples "home remedy"..yeah spray milk all over your plants...lord knows milk doesnt spoil....yeah sulfur burners, I love that slight taste of sulphur so much I always smoke with matches even if i have a lighter....I know I sound jaded, but thats because people can spread so much stupid info on these sites that the real info gets lost in the chaos.......Click here this seller on ebay ships all over the world.

"GreenCure® fungicide is recommended for use on over 85 different flowers, trees, houseplants, fruits, vegetables, and turfs. Unlike other fungicides, GreenCure® is not a toxic chemical. Its active ingredient, potassium bicarbonate, is commonly used in food products and is "generally recognized as safe" (GRAS) by the FDA."

Why is GreenCure® better?

• GreenCure® is the Smart Choice: GreenCure® is highly effective against Powdery Mildew and other fungal diseases of plants. It is university tested and proven in agricultural environments.
• GreenCure® is the Environmental Choice: GreenCure® is more friendly to the environment and you! The EPA recognizes the benefits of the active ingredients in GreenCure®. The EPA notes, “Potassium bicarbonate and sodium bicarbonate are naturally occurring compounds that are not expected to have adverse effects on humans or the environment when used as fungicides. Use of these two compounds in pesticide products may provide an alternative to more toxic fungicides currently on the market.”
• GreenCure® is Easy to Use. Mix with water and spray it on your plants. The power of GreenCure® immediately defeats mildew and it’s preventive nature lasts 2 to 3 weeks.

I know it doesnt say it will kill PM forever, but it does and did. The growers in my community are now PM free, not just me. It can be absorbed into the plant (where the PM comes from) and kill it over time. I got rid of it in 3 rotations....maybe sooner thats just when I stopped using GC all together. Do yourself a favor and try it....$20 to put a choke hold on PM is an awesome deal....$20 to put PM to sleep FOREVER is a god send.

learn to dry a bud
What does that have to do with pm? You are more likely to develop bud rot while drying than PM. PM is everywhere. If you ever introduce plants to your grow room, whether from a dispensary, friend, or even your back porch you need to have a plan for PM.

ive seen it from keeping bud to wet in the jar with humidifier disks. if you keep it in the jar with out those and cure it after harvest i dont see what your problem is if u get pm on the plant than you have problems as a grower

"Not only was milk found to be effective at controlling the disease, it also acted as a foliar fertilizer, boosting the plant's immune system."
So does that mean the immune system is bumped so much that it kills the PM...cause controlling the PM wasn't enough for me, and should't be enough for you.


"The research work in New Zealand actually found that using skim milk was just as effective. Not only was it cheaper, but the fact that the milk had no fat content meant that there was less chance of any odours."
Less chance...again...not good enough for me. GC has no smell.

Its an interesting thing how milk can affect PM, through ph or something (your link states that scientists arent %100 sure why) milk can control it, not what I want. I had PM...gone...I had Spider mites...gone...I dont control, I kill.

his is all good info i am at day 12 flower and have caught what i think is pm in its early stages. i have hit my plants with H202 at 4 tblsp to a quart the first time and a 25% solution the second time. yesterday i pulled all the plants out and cleaned the tent. i have the exhaust going full go all the time to keep humidity down it has been just under 40% lately. i have also been letting the room run a litte hotter (low 80's( b/c i heard the mildew has more trouble growing in the hotter temps. i ordered greencure the other day in case it gets any worse.
My question is strictly seedless i know the pm is not gone so how should i go about treating my plants with the greencure so that it wont hurt my flowers? i ask this because i have heard of greencure causing buds to brown and lose their smell. how late into flower can i really go to make sure i don't endanger taste?

durbanmistyman-I was spraying greencure until the last week of flower when I was growing LA Confidential. I never noticed a smell from the greencure or a lack of smell from my strains. Just spray right before the lights go out and you should be fine. greencure is good as a preventative measure as well. I still swear by it.
