PM in veg. Clone dunk sulfur?

[!CORAL!REEFER!]

*edited*
Hey everyone! I’ve recently noticed a few small spots of PM on a few of my plants in veg, I plucked off the leaves that I saw formations on but I know the spores are every where and I need to do some preventatives to keep it clean for flower. These are new clones that I got from another farm. It’s been 2 weeks since i noticed anything new as far as PM spots.

Environment is pretty good around 50% humidity and around 74 degrees lights on and 70 when lights are off, I have an oscillating fan in room.





I started spraying with Zerotol and I just want to add another angle just in case.
I’m considering a clone dunk in some wettable sulfur but is it better to just spray it on or actually dunk the whole plant?
Also gonna be doing a sulfur burn and I’m looking for advice on spraying vs burning and maybe doing both.
Any advice is much appreciated

I do clone dunks in a bucket of wettable sulphur. I mix 1 tbls per quart of water and add a drop or two of plain dish soap. I dunk for 60 seconds and let them air dry before putting under the light again. Don't use any oil based pest products with sulphur as the two don't do well together. I alternate the next week with a citric acid dunk at 2 tbls per quart of water to fry any thrips or mites and then repeat the sulphur at week 2 from the first dunk. Better safe than sorry when bringing in cuts for sure.

Thanks for the reply. So a sulfur dunk you’d say is pretty safe and effective for to kill PM, and prevent it?

The guy I learned the recipe from has a microscope he uses to view the mold colonies with. He swears by doing 2 dunks or very thorough sprays 2 weeks apart and it kills 100% of the pm on the plant. The tent or grow room will have spores that need very attentive cleaning or a sulphur burn to eradicate. Hope you get it beat asap, it's a real pain to deal with. Gotta have a clean quarantine area for new cuts and hit them right as they come in.

You can treat with Zerotol as needed all the way to harvest and you will be fine!

Citric acid spray.. 2tsp per qt water.. Kills mold by lowering ph..

Sure, it's 1 tablespoon of wettable sulphur per quarter of water and just a couple drops of plain Dawn dish washing soap to help as a surfactant. Another application 2 weeks later and the colony should be gone. I do citric acid in between the two sulphur applications just as part of taking in new clones. The citric is great for mites and thrips and screws up the PM as well.

Thanks for sharing the recipe. I was wondering if anyone combines other things in with sulfur spray, like silica or kelp? I want to do a sulfur spray but also do t want to miss out on my usually foliar combo
