With mites i use plane tobacco water in a spray bottle. Steep a few broken smokes in hot water for a few hours. Works well for mites no idea about mildew tho... spray and wipe it off?

Google "horsetail grass tea" ..... Buy some. Brew it as directed and cool down....Spray on plants for mildew/mold and kiss it goodbye!

Best damn PM killer I ever used! The plants LIKE it! Can be used right up to harvest! ORGANIC!

You will most likely now have to spray down the whole grow too. The spores are everywhere including the floor.....SANITIZE EVERYTHING...

Mites.....If you can't seem to get rid of them......Forbid 4F - get affordable amounts on ebay..

Sorry I misunderstood him. I've had bad experiences with peroxide that's why I just wanted to help but never had a problem with mites . Now mold on the other hand lol that's a different question.

I have a sulfur burner I use if I have powdery mildew.... And I use my sulfur burner about every two weeks in veg even if I don't have pm.... Just so I don't get it.... make sure u have fans running in your room and keep the humidity no higher than 50 to avoid powdery mildew

2TBSP baking soda per gallon of water worked great for powder mildew in my vegetable garden. I'm not positive but i'm pretty certain it changed the Ph of the leaf surface and the mold has a hard time growing on strong alkaline surface.

Sulfur burners work BUT, they leave a residue on everything!
Everything coming into my shops must be tested. The test will show that you used a burner and the product has a residue on it.
I would not buy it.....Don't need to be smoking sulfur.

In my state. The upcoming new laws will require testing of everything on the shelves and the reports must be posted at the point of display.

But if you only burn in veg it will not be on the buds correct?

Well that's what I do.... I only burn sulfer when there are no buds.... preventive measures go a long way is what I have been told.... As I am still learning .... only have one grow under my belt.... But I got 36 oz of 4 plants of high-quality smoke.... So I'm just trying to do better and learn from my mistakes.... Thx for the info.

This is Horsetail grass
It grows commonly around wet area's and field edge's

Cut and dry your own if you can find some......If you get hit in bloom - This is the answer.
