Take off all the leaves affected by PM and mix 5 mls of baking soda with a quart of water and spray all the plants with it. It changes the ph on the leaf so PM wont grow. Make sure your air circulation is good, very good. If your in veg the leaves will grow back. Read up on stripping your plants of leaves, they will grow back

plant leaves dont grow back, they scar and it is what it is, but new growth will take place at the top of the plant. no big deal.
he said hes in flower. youre in a sticky situation. baking soda is sometimes effective for killing mold, so its a good measure to try. might want to add white vinegar in the solution as well.
youre not misting your plants, are you? you shouldnt be.

Ya, they wont grow back so well in flower. The baking soda thing worked for me, it took about a week of using it every second day. I still see the odd leaf affected but not many. If the leaves were bad id still take them off. That stuff will just grow back and it does spread bad, but not if the leaves are gone and you spray. And yes spray them, once again meatball is posting crap. Can he be removed for constant spamming?

New growth will arise from adventitious buds and these are present low on the stem as well as toward the top.
let me be more specific. leaves or buds will not grow back in the same spot. energy will go elsewhere though

Leave the leaves on and treat evrrything with serenade. Buy it in concentrate and mix 20ml to a litre and spray everything.

Yea energy will go elsewhere, but only after being stunted for about a week because it's goal was to go to some place that is now gone. It takes time for the plant to redirect the energy.
