Vondank, recommended eagle20 to me for pm if organic solutions didn't work. Tried zero tolerance, neem oil, baking soda and nothing has helped. I pruined the leafs that were infected but it just spreads to other leafs. I have a bottle and I am thinking about using it but I am having some second thoughts. My current grow has been all organic up to this point but I dont want to lose my crop to powdery mildew. The smell is also another thing that is slowing me down from spray my lady's with this stuff

1) How toxic is it to my plants and myself?
2) Would it kill beneficial I have in my soil?
3) Im still in veg, Do you think I will be fine with my dried and cured product? as far as the chemical still being in the plant or nug? Not trying to smoke chemicals.

Thanks for the input, I would love to hear a review of someone who used it in veg

Be very careful about using this product. It is recommended for some perennial food crops but it will work systemically and that can be a serious concern for your crop. There is a lot of science based info available on the web and you should investigate that before you apply it to you cannabis.

I have been jessy, But I am still having a problem making up my mind. I feel like I read something that makes me think it fine then I read something and I think theres no way I am going to use this... Just looking for some RIU users opinion. Reggae, how does your friends product taste? Harsh or anything?

I forgot to mention that the last time they apply it to there plants is 1 week into flower.. there is no residual left in plant when used in that fashion..they did tell me that they were warned about using in late flower..

one more thought is organocide. it as a fish oil based product that works great to fight powder.. and once again you probably dont want to use in late flower.

if youre already flowering i wouldnt use it and keep it organic. keep using neem oil to keep it under control (if thats possible for you) and when youre ready to harvest you can wash off the PM by bathing your fresh cut buds in a bath of water and hydrogen peroxide (roughly one cup 3% peroxide to 4-5 gallons of water). just dunk them lightly swirl them around, then hang to dry outside with a fan blowing on them. all the PM will be gone.

Badmojo: Im not flowering yet. I was going to just prune the leaves with the pm and wash it when harvested but I am afraid it will affect the taste

1) How toxic is it to my plants and myself?

It's very toxic, that's why it works. Mix and apply as directed (Don't try and out think the manufacturer), and follow safety procedures, gloves, mask etc.

2) Would it kill beneficial I have in my soil?

It shouldn't if applied correctly. If you over apply and lots of run off into the soil ..........

3) Im still in veg, Do you think I will be fine with my dried and cured product? as far as the chemical still being in the plant or nug? Not trying to smoke chemicals.

That's fine, no problem. I ONLY use it in veg and it's gone by harvest. I've heard you can apply it no later than 1 week in flower, but I never have.

I do organics, but I'm not afraid to use (very strong), chemicals when needed. You can stand on dogma and lose your crop or deal with it and have smoke.

You only use as much and as often to take care of the problem. Usually, that's just one application, correctly done. Repeat applications and too strong a solution does way more harm than good and very common to inexperienced growers. " Oh, the directions call for 1oz/gallon once/month, then 2oz/gallon every 3 days ought to be great" type of thing.

BTW, I used to be a licensed applicator, so I know a little of what I speak.
