Then goes on to tell you how it kills pm an prevents just as well as fungicides by allowing a protein to bind and become antiseptic

There are 100s of strains of PM and the ones I have had on mj laugh at milk. Then they get pissed and explode. YMMV. Lots and lots of gardening sites speak to milk sprays as being best used in a preventative mode. This jives with my personal experiences and those of others posting here.

Please site the post on page 1 where you specify you have used milk effectively on mj. I see where you admit it has not been effective for you and I see where you imply you can spray it on your leaves without getting your buds wet, very funny stuff.

That escalated quickly....Funny stuff.
It does make sense for it to be a preventive spray more than killing mildew that is already there. I also have read that if you do not mix it correctly that it will indeed grow a whole new type of mold or strain of mold. And it does smell, from experience I used it before flower on my plants and it makes them smell funky for a week or so. Kind of like old curd milk that has been sitting in the fridge. I would use Peroxide if the infection is present. I believe I stated that to begin with. And I say that b/c that is a household item that most people keep in their home. That green cure stuff is probably the best bet if you have money and can go buy shit like that. Us broke people can't afford such luxury's. So sad....

Milk won't kill PM. Honestly there is not many products that will kill on contact on PM. Most of these products are used as a control measure. Most of it just raises PH to absurd levels so the spores can not inoculate.Therefore stopping the spread. Then you can just wash all the shit off and keep followig up with the treatments and you should be fine.
PM is about control. not eliminating. Much easier to control it successfully than kill it outright.
Yes milk has beneficial proteins but it stilll doesn't change the fact that it is disgusting.
Also. The milk method was mainly used with all natural milk right from the cow. Not the manufacted shit.
Regular pasteurized milk contains different things than natural unpast milk.

Actinivate and GreenCure are your best options. Followed by carbonated water or hydrogen peroxide at a 3% solution.
but dont spray straight 3%. get the industrial shit like 30% and break it down to 3%

Here's a friendly link for H2O2 mix rates in gardening:

I use about a gallon of 30% every season. Many great uses besides PM control.

Bugeye was remarkably restrained and calm, actually. It was pretty much a one-sided escalation.
