Loads of trichomes on that phantom Prof. She may not be quite ready.... but I am! (Insert eggplant emoji here)
Just lightly sprinkle it on with your fingers. Honey is antibacterial and antifungal as well.
Cinnamon also keeps bugs away.

Sorry Magoo but I think it's a little early for trichs on the POG just yet. Those are from the Island Punch. I was trying to avoid posting pics of strains that aren't from Barneys but as we are waiting for that to finish I thought I would show everyone how close we are to flowering.
I'm worried about it causing problems at the root zone as they're not as well protected as plants in soil. At this point though I'm willing to try pretty much anything lol. We've not lost one yet and I'll not give up on these until it's futile lol. Thanks VG
Prof, try making a cinnamon tea spray. I think it would work better. Steep in hot water, let sit overnight and strain through a coffee filter. I'm trying to dig up more specifics for you.
Benefits Of Cinnamon On Plants: Using Cinnamon For Pests, Cuttings, & Fungicide Gardening Tips & Information By: Anne Baley Printer Friendly Version Image by Zaharia_Bogdan
Cinnamon is a wonderful flavor addition to cookies, cakes and any number of other foods, but to gardeners, it’s so much more. This versatile spice can be used to help root cuttings, to prevent fungus from killing small seedlings and even for keeping pests away from your home. Once you learn how to use cinnamon powder for plant health, you’ll think twice about grabbing harsh chemicals for your gardening needs. Benefits of Cinnamon on Plants The benefits of cinnamon on plants is widespread and you may end up reaching for the spice almost daily. Here are some of the most common uses of cinnamon in gardens: Cinnamon for pests If you have a problem with ants in your home or greenhouse, cinnamon is a good deterrent. Ants don’t like to walk where cinnamon powder lays, so summer ant problems will be decreased. Use cinnamon for pests inside and outside your house. Find their entryway and sprinkle cinnamon powder in the path. Cinnamon won’t kill the ants in your home, but it will help to keep them from coming inside. If you have a problem with ants in your child’s sandbox, mix a container of cinnamon powder with the sand, mixing it well. Ants will steer clear of the sand. Cinnamon as rooting agent Cinnamon as a rooting agent is as useful as willow water or hormone rooting powder. A single application to the stem when you plant the cutting will stimulate root growth in almost every plant variety. Give your cuttings a quick start with the help of cinnamon powder. Pour a spoonful onto a paper towel and roll damp stem ends in the cinnamon. Plant the stems in fresh potting soil. The cinnamon will encourage the stem to produce more stems, while helping to prevent the fungus that causes damping-off disease. Cinnamon fungicide control Damping off disease is a fungus-based problem that hits small seedlings just as they begin to grow. Cinnamon will help prevent this problem by killing the fungus. It also works with other fungal problems exhibited on older plants, such as slime mold and with deterring mushrooms in planters. Take advantage of cinnamon fungicide control by making a cinnamon spray for plants. Stir some cinnamon into warm water and allow it to steep overnight. Strain the liquid through a coffee filter and put the results into a spray bottle. Spray the stems and leave of affected plants, and mist the potting soil in plants that have a mushroom problem.

Hope that helps to put your mind at ease a little as far as use goes.

I’m about to go sprinkle cinnamon everywhere!!!
I haven't figured out of they are using authentic cinnamon or one of the imposters.
The authentic is probably the best. It's more expensive, but not that bad.
The Ceylon stuff is considered the one true cinnamon. The Cassia is the cheaper cinnamon without as many benefits.
I think a higher grade Cassia would work fine. It will be labeled as Saigon Cinnamon. Very tasty stuff, if you've never tried it.
I wouldn't go out and buy an expensive cinnamon if you have any laying around though. They probably all work and I'm some sort of cinnamon snob tbh.

I didn't even know that there were different kinds of cinnamon lol. That's some great info there VG. The cinnamon in my cupboard is supermarket grade so I'm guessing I probably have the lower quality stuff. Is it just a spoonful of cinnamon that helps the slime stay down?
Looks like 2 Tblsp. Per 500 ml.
I haven't used this on cannabis myself so use a small bit on one plant first. I would apply the spray on the mold for the first time with some q-tips.
Physan was used in some of the threads I looked at as well.

Nice tip on the cinnamon VG! I just got out of the bath and all the fungus is gone. 
Seriously, I'll be using it in the veggie garden for sure. Thanks for taking the time to dig that out for us!
I was already reading about it for rooting hormone. I want to try a side by side by side with honey, willow and cinnamon. If I can find some rooting hormone at Wal-Mart I'll try that as well. Seems like a fun little experiment.
I'm trying some of the old farmer tricks in my garden lately. One of these times I'm going to stick a dead fish in some dirt and see what happens. My guess is that it will smell bad and possibly grow a plant. Lol.
Interesting. I haven't heard of that before. Worse case is you'll have a lot of cat friends.
If nothing else, you'll smell fantastic. I have a friend that makes oil perfumes and she made a cinnabon scent and a dark chocolate scent called "Sexual Chocolate". If anyone can get that obscure reference, you get brownie points today.
