Pm is environmental and systemic either change your environment or cull them. Imo it's not worth the headache to try and keep infected plants alive.

I had a batch of 6 that got it during flower. I would carefully remove the infected leaves in hopes of keeping up with it. In the end, it spread faster than I could keep up and I ended up cutting 3 plants early. The other 3 were completely resistant. It was due to inadequate air flow. I hadn't trimmed the lower parts of the plant and it became a jungle. While the room humidity was fine, down inside the jungle it was much higher and the PM took hold.

It's like herpes - once it's there it's not going away. Air flow and lowering humidity will slow it but not stop it. Treating it with anything will kill the outbreak, but it will be back. The buds are a rich source of moisture too - once it gets to them, there really isn't much you can do.

Spray high ph water on leaves(pm can't germinate on high ph and water wont hurt buds) use greencure(okay to use up to harvest), lowery humidity and higher air circulation, watch the garden everyday for more signs of PM, do a h2o2 bath on buds when you harvest if you really want to make sure it's all out. These are all things I did when I got PM in mid-flower
