Sure looks like PM to me. Likely your spray had too low pH. PM loves acidic, humid and cool environments.

Do a few searches and you will find all sorts of cures.

I recommend Sulphur vaporizer for rooms. Serenade will treat for a bit. Lollipoping is a technique. Keep humidity low and area warm and if you MUST spray be sure its very slightly alkaline.

Any other ideas or is this definitely pm? I found some grey spots on another clone this guy gave me kinda annoying but can I just prune the infected leaves? Is it contagious?

Powdery Mildew, but to avoid humid ares wipe the leaves and grow area down with warm water and 10% bleach or use commercial stuff

Its definitely pm. It is easily cured with a diluted milk/water mix. 1/10 ratio. I have had this problem, and the milk mix took care of it.

The plants also benefit from the calcium in the milk. You are basically foliar feeding the plant calcium while you kill the pm.



Milk has long been popular with home gardeners and small-scale organic growers as a treatment for powdery mildew. Milk is diluted with water (typically 1:10) and sprayed on susceptible plants at the first sign of infection, or as a preventative measure, with repeated weekly application often controlling or eliminating the disease. Studies have shown milk's effectiveness as comparable to some conventional fungicides,[SUP][11][/SUP] and better than benomyl and fenarimol at higher concentrations.[SUP][12][/SUP] Milk has proven effective in treating powdery mildew of summer squash,[SUP][12][/SUP] pumpkins,[SUP][11][/SUP] grapes,[SUP][13][/SUP] and roses.[SUP][13][/SUP] The exact mechanism of action is unknown, but one known effect is that ferroglobulin, a protein in whey, produces oxygen radicals when exposed to sunlight, and contact with these radicals is damaging to the fungus.[SUP][13][/SUP]

Get the air circulation going hard in the room too and keep the humidity down my friend and all will be good after you treat that shit. Good Luck

Just be sure to get all the contaminated vegitation out first. Fans spread the spores compounding the problem. Fans prevent PM they don't stop it.
