What ive read is PM Is it gets inside the plant and there is really no way to get rid of it it just keeps coming back

I'm using neem in veg and trying to do it every 4 days or so to see if it will help keep them clean without it later on. Assuming they're not catching it from the garden!

When i used the bicarb on them years ago it turned all the hairs brown )

Sodium or potassium bicarb? I'm going to give potassium bicarb a go next, and it seems that spraying almost anything on pistils (besides water) makes them angry.

I put this on a 15 min on 1hr off in-between rounds for a day or 2 to kill any rouge spore's that might be floating around. I left it on to long when i took the flavor out of that one + it was too close to the plant it killed the terpines no o taste at all ,took me a few minutes to figure out what happened

O3 is considered a hazard to humans, so unless you have good ventilation and a sealed room that wouldn't be on my list of ways to get rid of PM!

Ozone | NIOSH | CDC

Ozone (O₃) is a colorless to blue gas with a pungent odor. Exposure to ozone may cause headaches, coughing, dry throat, shortness of breath, a heavy feeling in chest, and fluid in the lungs. Higher levels of exposure can lead to more severe symptoms

Comparison of the 2 different methods I see BETTER results with a consistent moisture level than I do with a wet/dry cycle.

That's what folks in SIPs find, and they have the growth to back it up.
 
Im looking forward to this sweet island strain

I guess it could be hard to tell what high levels are without some sort of monitor like folks using CO2 use. I'm just erring on the side of caution. :thumb:

Oops sorry that 03 is hazardous at high levels to humans sometimes you can smell Natural ozone outside after a rain but that's why its on a timer so levels don't get to high just enough to kill the pathegeons and i don't have a sealed room nor am i down there when its running but like a tent put it in there for like 5 minutes that should be good after youve cleaned it i only use it in-between rounds for like a day or 2 and that's it and that's only when pressure is high in the summer

It does a good job but filters on your intake air and clean hands body and cutting utensils is key i hard a hard time with that crap for a long time years back i couldn't get rid of it! But learned last summer all my shit got pm pissed me off and no matter what i did i couldn't get rid of it and its been getting worse here Year after year outside so i resided to the basement from now on no more growing outside around here that's the reason i went to leds so i can do it in the summer without my fans running constantly and im bot a big fan of ac to much cost and heat going in the environment my house stays Cool I foam insulated all the wallls sealed all tge doors and windows for drafts in the summer when i close everything down for the day and pull the insulated blinds i keep it about 75f in here on a 90 f day

LOL I just was posting in the interest of protecting folks' lungs if they didn't know much about O3. I( wanted to make a note that anything dangerous at high levels needs to be treated with respect.

Of course you still haven't answered my question: did you try sodium or potassium bicarb?
 
The bi carb I have and not much luck it still comes back tgat powdered mildew from what ive read gets in the plants so once you grt it its a matter of getting through haverst with minimal impact from the shit tgey say you can trim it off but then you put a open wound in the plant and your screwed you touch it and then touch something else your screwd you don't clean your scissors ✂️ good your screwd lol no matter what you do to treat PM onc we you got it your screwd see the pattern 😂😂

So preventing it and being anal about being a clean freak is mandatory or its just a matter of time before you get it

Sodium. Baking soda, in the grow bible it says if you raise the ph of the leaf surface it won't grow on it to like 8.0 or9.0 but idk about that

Oh thanks! I'm going to try potassium bicarb and see how that works.

I tried it in flower and REALLY CAREFUL not to get any on the flowers man it turned tge pistils brown FAST be careful if you use sodium in flower fit treatment
 
My current flowering plants are too far gone to know what works and what doesn't, but I've got clones that are PM prone I can use as a test. Those are the ones I tested aspirin spray on, which didn't work at the dilution I found online.
