How do I look after battling powdery mildew

Hi all,

Looking for some opinions how I'm doing since battling PM. I was out of town for a week during xmas, and as you can see my plants suffered (and I expected the odds). I returned with nute defs, and an outbreak of PM- I did my best to fight both, and 10 days later this is where I sit. I am almost 7 weeks into the 12/12 cycle and my trichs are now 75% cloudy 25% clear. How much longer do you think I have? My battle with PM and nute problems have slowed down the flowering process, but I think I am finally on top of them as the color is coming back and there haven't been signs of PM for a week. I still plan to soak them in H202 following harvest. I used PM wash and Growers Trust PM killer. I highly recommend Growers Trust as that seems to be what kicked out the PM. Thanks for any help.. I had posted in another area on here and didn't get much of any help. It looks like the newbie area has better luck, and I am a newbie so it fits :-P

Looks like they need a bit more time. Thanks for the tip on the Growers Trust. I'll put that in my notebook as something to check out. I've done the H2O2 bath and it really does work. You do lose some trichomes rinsing it off but well worth it to salvage the grow. Good luck!

Im gona give you a key pointer take it how you will but this will never happend again, buy eagle 20 and spray 28 day before you end your flower cycle you'll be able to flush her out and the systemic spay will disapate that means eagle 20 is supresor of pm and it will not damage your plant even if those spores are in your room this is a key thing you need to know pm wash and all the others dont realy cut it.. this is my trick also use in veg but stop 28 days before you cut and you will never see pm ever in your life i havent seen pm in about 5 years.. i forgot what it look like till i seen this pic..

Thanks for the tip!! I was recommended Eagle 20, but seeing that this was an organic grow and that I was 4 weeks into 12/12 I chose a risky route.

However, I will be starting my new grow (7 kinds of peppers) indoors once I harvest my plants and even though I plan to grow these in a room very far away from where my girls were growing, I am still expecting an added risk of PM. Those plants won't be organic so I will probably use eagle 20.
