IMO Best to pluck them. WPM will probably recolonize if left alone.
Just went through a month battle with PM myself, what did you use to treat it?

How did you treat for PM?
Although they don't look damaged to the point that I would trim them in a regular inspection, if those leaves def had PM on them, I would take them off to avoid possibility of PM that is still viable on those leaves taking hold again.
Good luck! Peace

Those are PM war scars... I'm fighting PM sense late veg with whole milk 50/50 and peroxide 1:8 the next day.. once a week.. I also tried a Spanish product Oidiopram and stupidly did not follow the instructions and burned some leaves and now is to late to use it coz it says that i can't use it 2 weeks before harvest and I'm nearly there.... its a tough fight.. I'll remove them! Thank youHow did you treat for PM?

Full fat milk water 50/50 first day.. let it dry.. makes a thin layer on affected areas... protein in milk kills PM.. then next day I mix paroxide and water 1 to 7,8,or 9 depends how severe it is.. and wash of milk but not completely, juts to be sure.. milky skin layer gets softer and spread more through the leaves covering more areas and the peroxide does it job too...
But like it says once u got PM its a fight to the end!!

Haven’t tried the milk route myself, but tried probably everything else aha.
Wettable sulphur is how I got mine in check, what a nightmare to deal with eh? Hope it stays at bay and you get a good harvest!

Did you ever hear of "Banish fungicide" ? I have choclopes that are 3 weeks into flowering. About 5 weeks in, that f'ing PM showed up. I treated/sprayed each plant only twice within 1 week......PM disappeared.........the plants look great. Most fungicides( many not safe to use) are preventatives. Banish actually kills the "hook" that PM pierces mycelium with.....it's a geranium oil extract.....for me, a godsend. Material Safety Data Sheets , products of combustion, residual data etc. look damn good to me. This is just my opinion concerning safety.

Bro try this.
1 TBS Potassium Bicarbonate
1 TBS vegetable Oil
Few drops of dish soap
1 gallon (3.78L) of water.
this is a very effective fungicide and Potassium Bicarb is pretty cheap and readily available.
I had very good luck with this:

If you must you must. No different than the other gross sprays. Lol.
however if it was me beyond 3 weeks I'd drop everything except thepotassium bicarbonate and the water and just spray with that more frequently to subdue the problem. It really is all about coverage. What you don't touch you don't kill.
