I had the problem, normally comes from limited airflow through the plant, mostly in the middle. You could trim the plant within to allow more airflow, cut all leaves with white powdery substances, and spray with water and peroxide. It knocked the problem right out. It came back a couple of times, or I never really killed it the first time. It was a little worst than I thought. When I was checking after a day or so of trying to fix it, I noticed it was a little worst than I anticipated. I got all into the middle of the plant and there was more all inside. It was a big ass plant. You can also cure it in water, if it gets on the buds. There is a technique to that on YouTube. How to get all the mildew of when harvesting, but hopefully you'll nip it in the bud, before time to harvest.

I was just checking your journal out. With @Emilya and the others following along, you are in more then good hands...Like she said, It looks like early trichome production, not PM.

No problem, that's what the forum is for. Pretty looking picture! By the way, is this site only for people growing under a light? Someone made a comment to give me that idea, and mostly everyone is growing indoors. I haven't grown indoors in years, and when I did it was in soil, no water. Thank you in advance!

There's an indoor and outdoor section in forums.

Mmmhh, interesting, thank you for the information. I will look for that right now.
In the pic it looks like sugar forming. Could be the light making it look that way. Hard to tell much in purple light. However, I believe you can get rid of WPM with Dish Soap & water in a spray bottle if I remember what i read correctly. I'm sure @Emilya will know.

I don't see it. I see 420 forums, and there's a drop down arrow, but still don't see it under there. Would you mind telling me a little more?

That's what I was thinking. I remember an older post from an old forum I was a member of....anyways, the grower was washing his trichomes off because he thought it was PM. I am not 100% but it looks like this is the case too but hard to tell with the lighting.

If it were Pm....it would have moved when you blew on it. What you see it just trichome production ( a great thing ).
