ICMag would be a far better destination for you Cruzer - and with a bigger audience of growers than CC has by far.
I agree, CC was the first one i thought of. We posted the nutrient challange there. Actually I have the same username at several forums. While doing research I joined them as cruzer101 so I could see the pics.

Thanks for pointing that out.
Looks like things are back to normal though.

Hey cruzer are you using mozilla firefox by any chance as your browser?
If you are there is an awesome add on you can download called ad block plus
It makes all those annoying ads disappear haha
Here's a link: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1865
Ever since I downloaded it I have not seen one add on here, talk about awesome haha
Also, if you get a chance I would love to see some updated pics, things are probably looking great

I got a problem, looks like powdery mildew.

While checking out the lower leaf I noticed it. Then I found spots on other leaf. So I cut those off then looked down at the Green Crack girls I have below. They were covered in the shit.

Well, I removed them from the cab, brought them outside and blew most of it off. I removed there lower leaf but I still see the powder on the stalks. Then I put them in a warmer area. Where I had the clones.

Temps have dropped to the 30's this winter and with this intake its keeping the cab around 45 50° when lights are off. Humidity has been up also. So today I am off to find a way to heat and move some air around in there. I am thinking a couple ceramic pet heaters and a mini tower fan I can keep on low.

Once I have that I will foliar spray with 8.5 ph water when lights are on to be sure it dries and go from there.
Any help here would be great. I never had to deal with this shit before.

Almost forgot, I got a couple ceramic heaters.

Heres a shot of the mold:



I got two of these today:




Did my thing with another vanity light...





I better cover those open sockets...






Try and warm this up a couple degrees with dry heat.




Update:
After 24 hours,



I ran them for 24 hours and I checked high temps and it had a reading of 104°
I'm not sure if that is correct though because I didnt reset it before adding heaters.

Anyway I put them on a timer that is opposite of the light and highs were 86° lows 76°

Yup, Its everywhere. Little bits but I have read this shit spreads fast.

So far those ceramic heaters have raised the temp about 8 degrees and lowered the humidity about 10 percent. I now run those lower fans 24/7 along with the heaters. I thought about heating the whole lower section Guy, went this way cause they are small and I can move them where I need heat. I could get one for the bottom with a thermostat for like $30 and I paid $26 ea for these. I may still get it. I have to see what my low temps are tomorrow.

I dont give up easy. Bums me though, didnt have this last winter grow. Had those fuckin spider mites. Thats why I got the new cab...
Well one reason.
