It looks like powder mildew. You will need to do a sulfur burn. Your local grow shop should have sulfur candles. Burn one of those and let the sulfur fall onto your plant. It should cover the whole plant. Let that sit on the plant and it will kill the mildew but not your plant. It smells like crap but it works. Its your only hope. Good luck.

Carefully remove the leaf. Wiping will spread the powdery mildew. You will need something to kill or prevent it. I beleive its a air circulation and humidity issue. I use Scorpion juice from Advanced Nutrients.

"Bourdeaux mixture" can be useful for controlling gray mold. A spray containing copper, Bourdeaux mixture, and a beneficial organism called Bacillus subtilis is effective against downy mildew. Spraying with bicarbonate of soda, organic horticultural oils, and sulfur can kill powdery mildew. Some growers use sulfur burners to create airborne sulfur treatment against powdery mildew. Bacteria can be controlled using Bourdeaux mixture.

do not listen to Jsteezy, Don't waist your plants. The sulfur will kill it. Not only will it kill the mildew but it will coat the whole room and prevent it from returning.

If you can't do a Sulfur burn there are other ways, but those ways basically just contain the problem.

I just got PM and I'm in an apt so sulfur is kind of out of the question.

I'm using Fungus Pharm it works good, just about any fungicide will work I believe.

However the PM will come back, you have to keep spraying every couple of days. Also, it's VERY important you improve ventilation, etc.
 
just make sure you always have fresh air in your room and dont let it get to humid, thats the key

Hmm, if it's mold, I've done a mixture of 10% baking soda in a spray on the leaves. That seems to be able to kill the crud and save the rest of the plant.

Just let the spray dry on the leaves and then nothing else will be able to grow.

That should help stop the problem without anyone smelling sulfur or even noticing anything different.

Anything that looks too spotty, I would remove as someone else said. You don't want that to spread around. It does spread quick.

Time to look at your grow room, my man, to make sure that things don't get moldy or mildewy the next time.

Good luck! :weed:
