Not very bad yet. First two pictures are the ones that show the powdery mildew on the fan leaves and the rest are just pictures of the buds at 3 weeks and 1 day.pm.jpgpm1.jpgpm2.jpgpm3.jpgpm5.jpg
 
bit of milk diluted in a sprayer , give it a blast , leave for a few minutes then wash off WELL , the white bits will turn brown , any weak leaves will die off , the p/m will be gone , do it outside , cover the soil as you dont want this on your root ball , if any gets in then flush the bastard ( pour in 5 times the container size , a 5 litre pot means 25 litres of water to be pured through ) , expect all the hairs to die off but at 3 weeks this isnt a problem as theres plenty still coming

this is corrosive , sprays from shops do the job also

dont forget you got p/m from somewhere , if you dont fix it then you will be doing the same again and again
 
1 part milk to 9 parts water and you could spray all the way
up to harvest. This will rid the PM instantly with no ill effect to the buds/smoke.
Big agricultural grows use milk.

Im doing hydro with a drip system and cant really move the plants. What can i do?
 
must wash it off quite quickly though , leaving it on for half an hour ``so it works proper `` means bye bye plant ,,,, dont ask how i know
 
Milk is for soil grows.
Not sure about hydro but interesting
question you have about ridding PM
in hydro grows.
 
watch your temps.
powdery mldew has a tough time growing above 70
shoot for 77-80 lights on and off
get a heater if you have to

pm has a tough time growing above 77
if you get in the 60s when the lights are off it will spread
 
Wash off all the pm and run a sulfur vaporizer during you dark period just make sure your exhaust fans come on and clear the vapor out of the room before your lights come on or they will burn. I get pm in my flower room every grow within the first few weeks of flower I run my sulfur vaporizer and it's gone since I discovered using sulfur I don't even get worried about pm any more
