I picked up some serenade this year online as I don't have a hydro store nearby. Hoping to prevent losing 20-40 percent of my crop as I've done in previous years. With that's being said, I'm 3-4 weeks into flower and no mold or rot yet. Should I be spraying them now to be preventative or wait till last few weeks or until mold shows?

You should ALWAYS be doing whatever you need to do as preventative. No you shouldnt wait until you see mold. I would have thought that to be very clear. How long have you been growing? And Im not trying to knock you by asking that, just trying to understand why you would think throwing some serenade on it when the shit is already there is the solution....

Integrated Pest Management, people obviously need to type this into whatever search they use and take that information in......

Lots of fresh, white pistils. Don't let the budworms call the shots......unless they are really bad.
Trying, I really dont want to spray at this point so I am hand picking the twice a day.....today only 3, the first day 11.... unless there is secret spray, the buds are to far along i think to spray and its only on this one plant.

Don't be a dick haha, been growing for 7 or 8 years but mainly indoor, outdoor has always been for fun but trying to get more serious, i see most people saying they spray down after bud rot starts, where I am it's always over 80 percent humidity for September, October and majority of August... I know it stinks so I just wanted to confirm before I douse my plants. Cheers
