Do you put the buds in front of a fan for a while after the three baths? (I saw what you mean about the H2O2 bath in my washed bud.)
I do put a fan on them for the first day or I just set them under my carport for a few hours to drip dry and let the tradewinds do their thing before I move them inside my dry area. I hang everything on field fence that I make into cylinder shapes and then double stack them in the dry room.

There is an old farmer in Oregon who uses lemon juice in water to stop PM. I sprayed the mixture on some TGA gear the had heavy PM and It worked great! No more PM.
Citric acid works too and it's super cheap. I've been using Actinovate lately and I like it. Whenever I can opt for biological warfare I will. I also use Micro 5000 and PZ 1000 from Tainio Technologies which isn't made for PM, but I think just having an active microbe population on the leaves helps to take up real estate space on the plants.

Mmm dj's flo, i really enjoy/respect that pheno.. Smooth & candy sweet, sounds like fun crossing it with pine chunk!
I've got some Purple Badlands from Greenpoint Seeds going. It's Flo x Stardawg. The reviews and pics in the Greenpoint Seeds thread sold me. I think typoerror was the one who grew them out and said every female was a keeper.

I've been using Regalia lately and been happy so far. Its an organic plant extract of Giant Knotweed that provides translaminar protection against fungal attacks. Kind of pricey though but 1 gallon should last me a long time. Marrone Bio makes a bunch of other biologicals that many farmers are having success with.

I've never had much luck with actinovate and since they were bought out by Monsanto the product is even less attractive to me.

That sounds interesting, the original flo cut has a taste that i cant get over and a super clean high but i find most people don't like it, its got some rare qualities imo.

The linalool/caryophyllene combo taste like some kind of sweet earthy candy tart, something i really enjoy.

Im gonna go check out gp's thread now lol

I saw Dave from the Garden of Weeden {of Sub Cool's Weed Nerd You Tube fame} use it on his cheese. I tried it last year on my Hurricane Head, and it kept the PM at bay.

That white stuff is excess rooting powder , i always use more that i need on each cut the ensure that they dont go into shock that much if at all
Does anyone else use a little rooting powder in your soil mix when starting seeds? I did that for the first time this year. Was such a fucked up wet summer, not sure if it helped or not. I have some of Getaway's juice now, so my root growth should be better this round.

I've done it with the water too. I do a three layer soil mix in my seed pots. Hot on bottom, 50/50 hot and mild in the middle, then mild on top. I sprinkle powder between the middle and top layer. The roots will hit it 2nd or 3rd day.

Since I started late and the sun didn't shine on my sprouts for most of June, it's hard to say if it helped. But I figured it couldn't hurt.

I tried using mycorrhizae powder as a rooter, wasn't thrilled, I might try it again, but next I think I'll give aloe a shot, since I have a ton of it in the yard, and I've read good things about it. My understanding is too much rooting powder is a bad thing?, but whatever I read in one book is contradicted or ignored in the next one. Now I'm deciding whether to give my Lemon Thai buds a three part rinse tomorrow ala Rikdabrick, or say to hell with it and hang it up.

I had heard that too, about using too much of the powder. I used about a lid full on 41 gallon pots. Just a light dusting in each pot.

I use diluted aloe every so often, it seems to work great other then attaching gnats & fruit flies while potted. Ive been wanting to try willow water.

For real? No way I want to attract an evil air force. I want willow water too, but I haven't seen a single willow tree on the island. It's probably not kosher to get some mailed in.

Wait, does it attract critters while making the clones, or attract to the clones you've made?
