No matter what you end up using, turn up the heat and reduce the humidity if you can.

The effected leaves will shrivel up, and then you can harvest. :blsmoke:
anything you lose, you wouldn't want to smoke anyway.

The milk spray should work. You will just need to re-apply it every few days. Actually anything with a different PH high or low should kill it.

Then the lower humidity & heat will keep it at bay. :mrgreen:

I use mildew cure it works ok, I started getting mildew around week 4 flowering and been using mildew cure since every 10 days or so. I'll just trimmout the mildew when I harvest, it seems to only grow on a certain leaf right next to the nugget but not on the nug itself so I'll just have super manicured herb. It was in the clones when I got them my humidity never goes above 50% and is usualy around 43-45 lights off and 35-43 lights on, temps are 68-70 lights off and 76-79 lights on. Hope this helps

so anything with a different PH? ive heard of this baking soda method that works because it has a PH 7 but you have to brush the dried baking soda off afterwords, so to eliminate the baking soda and just take water and make the PH 7 and use that as a spray, think that would work?
