Thought I'd share my own problems with pm too.
I get lots of pm outdoors where I am. It's a cold, wet climate.
By late summer, or early autumn, it's a lot cooler during the night. We have warm, humid days. Then cold, damp nights.

Pm spores are around all the time. As a grower, we need to minimize the risk of pm infecting our grows.
Imo the biggest factor is environment. You need to break the pm's life cycle. Powdery mildew needs moister and high humidity to grow. Also it needs to dry so it can spread spores.
It's about keeping humidity and temps in range. Especially during lights out. Lots of air exchange, and circulation is key as well.

Prevention is the most effective thing.

Some things to check over, and keep in mind if you didn't know already.

Humidity.
Especially at night / lights out.
Airflow.
Good circulation, and exchange.
Temperature.
Especially at night / lights out.
Good pruning.
No clutter in the center of the plant.
 
I have been learning as I grow.. I've encountered pretty much all the avoidable problems. I was too impatient and rushed into this before I finished the grow room completely... I purposely started with just 1 clone to see how difficult growing my own meds would be. As well as how much money id have to invest.. I'm very happy that I decided to. It's not a day on the water catching fish but it's a very rewarding hobby. And I'm really diggin it so far .. Pun intended..lol

This Clown has gotta be A JOKE.
so wait, trying to discuss preventing future Pm attacks and environmental conditions is a joke? listen son, dont be such a forum nazi, go smoke a bowl and chill....let me ask what happens when he gets a PM outbrak during week 6 of flower and he cannot spray anything on his buds? lets go MR grow expert??...to the OP who first asked from the begining, once you get some extra cash, go invest in a sulfur burning and do a burn once in a blue down the road and you wont have to spray anything, its obvious Zyphyrs likes to see his own words written, the guy critisizes and repeats what i said, thats the definition of a fool, i already said that azatrol is derived from the neem, that the cold pressed neem oil sucks compared to it, noone knows what bugs or molds your neem works on, but it dont work for mites, thrips, aphids, maybe if drenched it will slow down gnats...fucking forum nazis man, now i know why i went to I.C. back in the day, too many social media mopes on RIU sweati'n the "likes"
