I think i throw her away the infested "sour cookie" she is the weekest from all 6 ore the one behind from all 6 what you think? The sour cookies over her are a leaf pair behind so why not keeping the strongest and throw the weekest with the Mildew away?

It doesn't look any better or worse than the one behind it or to the left of it. Treating it now will be as easy as it gets. Killing that plant won't end your pm problem.

For sure. I always get some bud rot growing outdoors in my crappy climate. I learned the main active ingredient in regalia is called resveratrol which is also found in grape skins. I might try buying some resveratrol in powder form and combine it with alcohol to make it more available before diluting with water. Not sure if it'll be as effective as regalia but it's worth a shot.

A much cheaper option is southern ag garden-friendly fungicide (GFF) but you've gotta keep using it or the effectiveness will wear off.

Yeah I don't like spraying once the buds start getting big. The nice thing with regalia and I assume resveratrol is its systemic and can be absorbed through the roots, no spraying needed. I like to hit them with something high in ph like potassium bicarbonate the first couple weeks of flowering.

That’s interesting about resveratrol. Never would have guessed. They sell it in capsules at health food stores. In my climate I don’t need to worry about powdery mildew. It’s always dry as hell here. Outdoors my biggest problem is caterpillars and I have no idea how to stop them.

Anyway the chem pie is back in stock. I had a 30% off code in my email so I snagged a pack. That was the new strain that I wanted the most, but it went away during the sales. It was on there for a couple days after it was released but disappeared right away. Now it‘s back and I don’t have to feel like I missed out.

Interesting. I've learned a lot, or a little depending on what one believes, about resveratrol in the past two years. It's huge in the anti-aging and longevity fields. From mice to men, a lot of things are getting hyped. I will say one thing, intermittent fasting (12 plus hours a day without eating) does work for leaning out but maintaining or increasing strength and stamina. Keep us posted on your resveratrol use. Maybe it's actually good for something, lol.

You can use it as a root drench and I'm pretty sure it becomes systemic.

Nope, but i look for it. I have bought yesterday on ebay "Propolis" it's a Tincture of Alcahol and a Natural Fungicide Beese made to protect the Baby Beese.

Google it "Propolis"

I run an oscillating tower fan and a clip fan pointing down on my plants. For 3 plants! If I ran 6 or more plants? I'd use even more fans. Air circulation is THE most important factor in having a clean grow (no bugs, no PM, no bullshit).

When it comes to airflow, many growers are only concerned with the canopy -- which is a mistake.

I even run a couple of CHEPA™ filters to clean the air.

I dig the AC prefilter on the box fan. That’s a great idea. I have a legit 99.99% filtration HEPA cabinet. I’m into microbiology and used it to produce mushroom cultures and spawn. It would be extremely wasteful to run it with any regularity, but I would love to use it again, this time for tissue culturing... eventually. I know how to work with agar and all that shit and if anyone on here with tissue culturing experience could hit me up I’d really appreciate it. Anyway I’m starting to think I need more air movement in there and will add another fan. I’ve got the biome in my room set up decently well though. Nothing but trichoderma floating in my air according to my open air petri dish test, which only means it’s dominant and colonizing the dish before anything else can get established. Not much powdery mildew out here AFAIK.

My big pest issue is caterpillars on my outdoor grows. My local friend that grows a lot (the dude that turned me on to GPS in the first place) has a lot of trouble with russet mites. I’m hoping to get some biological control for those established in my soil before they have a chance to invade, but chemical free pest control is something I still don’t know enough about.
