Can anyone confirm if this is the dreaded powdery midew

[StonedGardener]

Sure looks like it....if that was my plant, I'd spray with "Banish Fungicide)..........have had 100% positive results........2 sprayings a few days apart, pm dead. Used for both vegging and flowering.

Banish is kind of hit-and-miss in my experience

It's worked for me and not worked for me

That's great to know, I've only had to use it twice.....great luck but that is certainly not enough data to get comfortable..........I'll be " on guard", thanks !

I’ve seen a ton of recommendations for plant therapy, I plant on continuing that and then doing the triple bucket wash someone was kind enough to post on here, probably press it after

Yes the triple bath technique will be interesting for sure

Yea, tons of products out there.....tried most of the home cures....not a bit of luck....the ingredients/chemicals of many fungicides are sketchy.....proprietary/unknown......funky products of combustion, many potential hazards pin injesting. I did environmental work for 39 yrs, I feel at ease using this product(if I keep getting good result).

There’s a lab in Ann Arbor I believe I can get tested for contaminants relatively cheap, def plan on doing that before smoking or pressing

I’m probly optimistic but I think there is a difference after a application of milk water

 

[bam0813]

There is an improvement but not to be Debbie Downer,its still there so keep up on it. Id treat every other day,every 3rd at the most if i was using milk. And after every rain obviously. Looking better though

If you look at the zucchini/gourd plant below, it's pretty infected. Look at the capillary veins, all white. I yanked mine, it was just a harbor for re infection.

Milsana should be available in EU, same thing as Regalia. Keep up with surface application, and induce some resistance in the plants.
Links below for some reading. Get some for next year for sure, great stuff.

I don't know about your plant, this was mine when I gave up and yanked it, a bag of gourds is cheaper than a bag of pot.

I went thru 2 weeks of that, then it doubled overnight, just went out in the morning, yanked it. She knew it had to go, so just some minor grumblings and complaints.

Strong the force is with this one lol I have made clear the problem and now the ball is her court do I grow cheap weed or do I buy it full of chemicals and getting more expensive I’m sure she will see the light lol

Was that the end of the mildew or had your plants sufferd ?

 

[Jjgrow420]

I won't grow squash or cucumbers because of this reason. Wife always gives me the gears for it but I just give her the look and she knows I don't want to be out there battling pm and loosing my crop. 'minor grumblings' lol
There's also a certain creeping vine with white trumpet flowers that is a pm magnet I always destroy it anywhere I see it. I also give my plants alot of stuff that boosts their overall health to keep them from getting pm. Also spray wettable sulphur. It's pretty much the only thing that's gona work in one shot but you can't spray the squash or cucumber it will die.
