I need some advice for a bad case of powdery mildew and/or botrytis. I have 2 weeks more to go. I've read all the posts here and more. I've tried numerous suggested cures: neem, sm-90, trichoderma harzianum strain 22, serenade, alkaline water, sulphur burner, ozone, dehumidifier... and have found it's not "almost impossible to stop pm in late flowering" -- it is impossible! -- sad but true.
this is my 3rd grow and 1st bout w/ powdery mildew. I have read advice that suggests harvesting early. The biggest and best buds go first.
I've salvaged what I could by cutting everything back and watching it closely. seems that when the bud gets good, the botrytis is in there. I don't know if the girls are suffering from powdery mildew and grey mold/botrytis or if it's all from powdery mildew.
My questions:
1. if I harvest early, won't that shit be lurking in the buds anyway?
2. I have also read to dry quickly, is this true and if so, what is the best way to do it?
