Look into an ozone generator/UV lights.
I run an ozone generator after every grow, and I have a HEPA filter running with UV disinfection bulb all the time. I'll also turn on the ozone generator every once in a while just to keep things sanitary.

Yep I've been looking into all this stuff I can do I think I may get the UV light eventually. I learned a big lesson, I never saw powdery mildew and my plants didn't have any on it either until I brought a plant home that somebody gave me and put it straight into my grow room. I'm almost positive it came from that plant. But after seeing how damaging PM can be and how hard it is to get rid of I'm going to be taking extra precautions now. I want to do a routine foliar spray of Lost Coast that I have but I don't know how well that would work with me foliar feeding a lot.

Potassium Bicarbonate is easily mistaken for Sodium Bicarbonate (baking soda) which harms the plant too much.
I was losing plant after plant to PM at one point when i was busy and this Potassium Bicarbonate has saved me from the headaches of DEEP cleaning all my equipment. The PM needs to be controlled, you won't eliminate it.

I do have a spare 6-in inline fan I was just now looking at some HEPA filters I can hook up to it and just run in the room that the tents in. Along with running my smart dehumidifier that filters the air and 8-in inline with a 8-in carbon filter. Maybe cut back on the foliar feeding and routinely spray my plants with Lost Coast. Also would like to get a UV light bar. I take it the UV diodes on the spider farmer lights aren't the same UV that I need or not strong enough for what I'm trying to use it for.
