Also get a dehumidifier and keep your humidity about 55% especially during lights out....

I take the oil burner

and fill it about 1/2 way no more so it doesnt boil over, then I stack two tea light candles on top of each other. You want the flame just under it. Put the whole thing in something metal like a cookie sheet and start her up. My room is 20x10 so dont go crazy if its just a tent. 2 hours burn, make sure lights have been off for 3 hours before you burn and 3 hours after you burn while airing out, that is crucial or you will kill all your plants. Then do a 1.5 to 2 hour burn about 3 weeks into flower and you should be good.

That wont work. It will only take the problem away temporarily. PM spores are really hard to kill completely and every grow you have from here on out in that room will get PM unless you eradicate immediately. Sulfer burner is the only thing that worked for me. I had a serious problem and thats all that worked to get rid of it. You got a ways to go on those plants and usually when you see PM spores on leaves its too late for sprays etc, its already infected the entire plant, plus that only slows it down for a little while then it comes back with a vengeance. Check out some videos on a cheap DIY sulfur burner and order some horticultural sulfur from ebay for cheap. Dont buy into the already made sulfur burners for 100+ they are bullshit and you can make one from a dollar store scented oil burner and a tea light candle. Till you get all that stuff, spray the plant with 1/3 cup 3% peroxide in a quart of water with 1/4 cup raw apple cider vinegar, lift the pots off the floor a little so air can get underneath.. Let the temps in the room get to 95-100 with air circulating fans on, for 2 hours that will kill a lot of the spores and control the problem temporarily. Then keep your temps ranging from 82-85 and that will slow down the growth and spread till you get the sulfur burner. Good luck PM is a bitch, oh and sulfur will kill any bugs in there too as a bonus
Let's start with the H2O2 dilution. Drug Store variety is only 3%, so you need to buy from beauty supply, then dilute ~ 10:1

If you spray the entire area with it, it ill kill the spores

I agree thats a start, but its almost impossible to kill PM in a room that has plants in it with h2o2 and even without plants it in you wont kill all the spores. It doesnt sound like you've ever had PM in an indoor garden.

I have. Why else would I offer this advice?

na you can leave it on. Dont forget PM starts on stem of the plant usually and works it way up the plant and then along each branch till it hits the leaves. When it hits the leaves it usually meant the entire plant is compromised, I wish you the best. Hopefully it stays away long enough to finish the flowering, i doubt it. Idk why everyone si so afraid of sulfur burns Ill never understand. good luck
