you ever tried copper sulfate? it "should" be fine for vegging plants.

No I haven’t .

No I haven’t .

Copper sulfate both kills and controls powdery mildew and other bacterial and fungal infections. However, you should only apply copper sulfate before the flowering stage, and dilute it for use on young plants so that it doesn't burn them

Day 25 of Flower
70-82f / 29-37% / 500w @ 20”

Noticing some rough spots on leaves, could be from the foliar spraying or possibly the 50watts per square foot.

Also noticed PM in the veg tent for the first time today, I’m assuming it hasn’t shown in there due to the higher temps.

I think it’s time to ditch all those phenos and give a good cleaning once done and pop some fresh seeds?

Yes sir! I’ve got those 5 cheese x headband I’m pumped for lol. Is there no way to save my SC cut?

Sounds like it’s very prone to PM

Not sure why you’d want to even keep it around.

Just partial to it.

I gave the basement and tents a good cleaning today, sprayed plants with Safers again and gave everything a good watering with lots of runoff. I might fight the PM for a while and get one last harvest out of the SC. Haven’t decided yet.

Day 35 of Flower
70-81f / 28% / 425w @ 20”

Turned up to 500w again today.

I noticed some orange hairs, so I’ve begun my 30 gallon a day flush as their only a week away from harvest.

 

[Brettman]

That tent would have been PACKED if I hadn’t cut so much away in fear of the mildew

Day 40 of Flower
72-79f / 28% / 425w

I flushed everything real good again today with half strength nutes and sprayed every plant top to bottom thoroughly for pm. I also dialed the lighting back to 75%.

 

[Brettman]

Trainwreck #1 (in the back in all pics) has bananas on every single cola. Tossed her clone out, I may still be tossing everything due to the PM so it’s no big loss.

Day 45 of Flower
70-80f / 30% / 425w

 

[Brettman]

Day 50 of Flower
65-79f / 28% / 425w @ 20”

Sprayed everything in the veg tent very throughly today, not going to spray the flowering plants anymore. Also gave everything a good watering until runoff again with nutrients at half strength.


Can anyone tell me why my leaves are getting crispy? I never went above half strength on the nutrients.. maybe lighting too intense and constantly spraying for pm?

 

[Brettman]

Took some better pics today of all three Trainwrecks.

# 2 smells the strongest so far and looks like it’s probably the densest, personally I don’t care about density but it seems like that’s all anyone else cares about. I think #2 is also the only one that I haven’t found pm on, not that that matters because I don’t have a clone of it lol

Day 55 of Flower
62-75f / 35-40% / 300watts

Dialed lights down to about 50% I spotted a couple tiny spots of pm again tonight…



I think some of the old pistils on number three are turning white, on the tops of all the lowers. Its so weird I’ve never seen it before, the picture doesn’t really do it justice (same thing I tell the ladies)

 

[rkymtnman]

dude, i'd be bald from ripping my hair out over that PM issue. that sux

Oh I am pissed. I flipped my veg tent a couple weeks ago and when everything’s done flowering I’m going to take a good long break I think.

Day 60 of Flower
62-76f / 30-40% / 300watts

Things are chugging along nicely.
