Have better ventilation, humidity control. Fans top of canopy, fans around pot height and one fan blowing up from bottom to lights. Never had a Pm problem ever. All about air movement and humidity.

Dehumidifier for prevention. Or a good defoliation.

Defoliation is a very good idea! For example if the plants do not have well enough wind cycle blowing the leaves around the plants leaves will than start to sit on one another and create little damp pockets creating a cavity looking for trouble. Plants perspire from all around the leaves and if bunched up under one another with no light, wind, and freedom it could create some unwanted trouble.

I always deforliate my plants once they lower inner new growth cant see the light I also give my plants spray down 1-2 times a day and they love it, I try to create my own little rain forest type jungle for my babies.

I always throw ice in my sprayer right before they seem to love it. But for 2 gallons of water I throw in 30ml of (Kelp me kelp you) from fox farms and about 10ml of potassium silica.

Spray about twice a day and they have just been some happy babies.

I dont use the whole thing, not at all thats just my mixture measurment. I than store the rest in a dark area for the next spray down. Typically I just spray each plant quickly until I see everything a bit moist and move on the the next. 2 gallons would drench my floor and YES there is water that gets on the floor but my tent evaporates it pretty quickly.
