One of my biggest fuck ups was bringing autoflower plants outside and inside everyday, into a room with other plants. Aphids, powdery mildew and other fun critters over everything. Cleaned like a mofo still lost a crop to powdery mildew well after it all, did a insane deep clean and now I'm mega careful about that kind of stuff. Even accepting clones from friends is generally a no-no. Everything gets bleached between runs now, and blasted with UV then peroxide after. Lamps fans pots cords. Anything in that tent is getting cleaned before a next run goes in.

Using ff nutes
Yeah whatever you do don't use ff lol...I always like it but also use gh too.

Unplugging stuff for "just a second" is probably my worst habit but also putting
stock into what I hear versus what I should actually just try. Like flushing...I eventually was like screw it and just skipped it and i didn't really notice a difference.

Paclo, avid, eagle 20.

Do your research before using what people recommend to you.
10000% do not spray Promis, Paclobutrazol, Avid,

These days you need a sealed grow room unless the air coming in is HEPA filtered for pollen etc.. I run a totally sealed grow with co2 supplementation and mini-split unit for heating & cooling. (Heating is only in Jan-Feb where I live where it gets negative °F)

Do not accept Clones from anyone or cuttings ideally use seeds for genetics. I quit taking clones last year and since bleaching my entire room I haven't had PM since. I also keep my Humidity below 50% throughout flower. 43-46% RH and haven't seen PM since.
If you CLEAN everything and ozone the space or sulfur burn you can eliminate it. It's the spores that blow around and land on leaves and re-infect. If you believe it is systemic go ahead and throw the plants away, bleach the entire room and start fresh.

Powdery Mildew can be coming from old boxes, board games and cloth, carpet, porous objects etc..

That's been me lately but not so much due to being lazy but lack of experience. Finishing up my first scrog and I'm embarrassed to admit how many branches I broke training by either being too rough or by trying to bend ones that i waited too long on. I have a new appreciation for a lot of the grows on here. The worst was when I accidently cut a bud off trying to take out a few fan leaves i just looked at my hand and thought to myself you idiot lol. Fortunately it was when they were still small so not too big of a deal

Messing with my timer on the UV light, accidentally slid the switch from "timer" to "on". So instead of 15 minutes I left it on for 24 hours before I caught it. Last month!! In flower. Fried the shit out of all the fan leaves on 4 plants. But the flowers are fine and are frosty af!!
Did the exact same thing a couple years ago.

Got too embarrassed to post pics, fml.
