Coming into the last weeks of flower . It's been super rainy and unfortunately I have PM taking over . I was hoping it would stay controlled till harvest but it's spreading pretty fast . Would letting it go till fully ripe be worth it? Or should I just harvest early and take my losses. I want to do whatever is gonna leave me with the best smoking flower image.jpgimage.jpgimage.jpgimage.jpg

You have to wash it without a doubt if you are thinking about smoking it. It could curl you up in a ball and seize your insides if you don't.

Sorry to see you having this issue with such a nice flowering plant.

Yes look into bud washing after harvest , I wouldn’t spray anything on those nugs unfortunately right now.
I would try to ride out the flower as best you can. But you will have to do some intense cleaning of grow area too.

@Budzbuddha.. 3 months is a lot of dust, we can’t see it on indoor plants, does it jeopardize any quality if done right for storage purposes rather then a issue, minus the peroxide.. I had spider mites years back on a outdoor, I ended up washing it and just making bubble with it.

@Luiii_999, that’s shitty, plants look great though. Positive vibes for a good finish and wash up. :blsmoke:

Thanks everyone for the advice . Still trying to decide what to do. Here's a pic of my current flower rn. It's a blue cheese , g13haze and kosher kush . Only the blue cheese and and the kosher kush have the mildew . The g13 is going strong no issue . CEDEB2EF-23B9-4743-8BC7-895C6789B476.jpeg

Powdery Mildew doesn't make aflatoxins and therefore it's not poisonous. People with mold allergies could have a reaction to the spores. Budwashing with a little H2O2 is a good way to deal with it so you can smoke your crop without concern.

Some folks spray their flowers with the H2O2 solution while the plants are still growing, I don't recommend this because the H2O2 can breakdown before all of the water evaporates and the residual moisture encourages more PM growth.

Am AirROS machine is the best fix, set it in the room with the plants for a few hours and all the PM is dead.
