Thoughts on controlling botrytis

What's up y'all? So far I'm having a great season,,,,,,that is until I just noticed blackish coloring appearing on all the newer growth on 4 of my 10 plants. I am growing guerrilla style and my location is in an opening that has a ton of runoff and contains a bunch of overgrowth, multiflora roses, duck's crop, and other various weeds, cutting down on adequate airflow. Strike 3 is the loaction doesn't receive alot of morning sun causing the dew to stick around until 10:00-10:30. I had problems with this last year but didn't know what it was until after preflower. I live in Ohio so I got another month before they start flowering. Any suggestions on what to use? I know orthonex systemic is bad stuff but I think I have enough time left for it to be flushed by the plant. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!!! Love y'all and good weather, and luck!!! Happy growing!!
 
Actinovate or Cease sprayed on and watered in, you can get Actinovate at a garden supply Cease is expensive and harder to find.
 
I dealt with this last year too so Im pretty sure I know its botrytis. The blackish coloring is on most of the new growth.

I've saw the same thing on my one of my guerilla patches last year. Still no idea what it was. Had 5 get it, three were complete loss. I don't think it's rot. The three I lost had twisted new growth and never budded out right. I hope you figure it out bc I'm at a total loss. Easter ohio
 
Both of these got shredded for bubble due to botrytis last year

Dont smoke moldy bud or bubble hash everrrr. Always keep a fungicide in your arsenol and get some airflow in that plot or keep battling this and wasting your time
