Hey guys,

I found a couple leaves on one of my plants with some white powdery mildew looking shit on them so I pulled them off, over the next couple of weeks the 2 other plants of the same strain also showed little spots! So I've got 3 plants that have powdery mildew shit going on, and none of the other plants ( variety of different strains ) show any signs of it. I pulled off all affected leaves and sprayed them all down with sm90, including the ones that had no sign of mildew. My question is to keep the 3 that have showed pm on the leaves? Or ditch those 3 and the 10 clones I took from them? I paid a lot for the strain that has the pm problem but I might feel best about taking the hit on them if it means the rest of my plants live healthier. I am going to put out 6 plants outside and 3 are the affected plants, the clones are staying with my other clones for now. To keep or not to keep, that is the question?


Can powdery mildew be cured? I have heard it to be IN the plants DNA once it has gotten it. Should I treat and keep or ditch?

I attached a pic of the first leaf I found with the pm looking shit. Let me know what you guys think!

I've never had a powdery mildew issue I've had to combat but I've heard of using a diluted milk/water mix as a foliar to prevent and or stop pm. I'm sure another Roller could confirm, denounce, or elaborate on this. Maybe something worth looking into no matter. GL!

Sulfur powder is supposed to be super effective, I dont think you can use it in flower though. I feel like you should focus on the cause of the problem and correct your humidity levels or it will be an ongoing issue. What are you temps? Humidity ranges? Are you foliar spraying currently? Do you have good airflow throughout your grow space? Maybe you have certain areas that recieve no flow and become stagnant.

That doesn't look like a healthy leaf at all. But more pics might help. Such a small leaf plants are usually pretty resistant to mold in veg. I usually only have mold issues in flower / curing . More info and more pics please! Best wishes!!!
