preparing for bud rot

gobbler3447 · Aug 3, 2006

I just want to be ready I've been plagued by budrot for the last two seasons.. Any of you OG'ers recall what the best fungicide for controling what must have been one of the seven plagues of Egypt.. I think I recall it being in one of the faq's.

Safest thing I can think of is using 1 tablespoon baking soda per gallon of water and spraying the plants.

http://www.serenadegarden.com/ Safe for application up to the day of harvest. Has to be reapplied every couple weeks.

That serenade stuff looks good! I've heard colloidal silver works, but I've also read it can interfere with flowering. Anyone used it?

motaco · Aug 5, 2006

that shit actually works for budrot in preventitive measures?

glock23 · Aug 5, 2006

Yeah, it's a bacteria that acts on budrot! Cool shit eh?

motaco · Aug 5, 2006

which leads to a much better question. where the fuck have I been that I've never heard of this?

If i am not mistaken 1 aspirin diluted to a gallon of water starting before flowering and continuing on through flowering helps to create an immune response in the plant thereby protecting itself from bad stuff....
PM, bud rot, etc...
Oldsterone did a big write up on OG but i wasn't able to find anything comparable on this site....
Edit: I forgot to mention this is suposed to be a foliar spray.... :wink:

Scorpian juice applied as a foliar application in veg and up to week 3 of flower has reduced my mold to a what would amount to a small handfull on several dozen plants.......it`s abit pricey but at the rate of 5 mils per litre of water..........one bottle can make up 200 litres of solution.

Rookie is correct with the asprin. Also willow water is also a natural/ organic remedy.
The link tells about willow water and asprin. http://www.bluestem.ca/willow-article1.htm WOLF

rebesi I'm sorry did you say scorpion juice?

this is a product like tiger bloom or something I'm assuming?

lol. not from a scorpion right?

has anyone tried safer garden fungicide or cueva copper soap? http://www.planetnatural.com/site/xdpy/kb/gray-mold.html. in the past i just cut the rotting pieces off and cleaned the surrounding area with rubbing alchohol. i would rather not throw bud away if i can prevent it. i've been using safer 3-in-1 garden spray but i don't think it controls botrytis.

You can also use a dilute skim milk solution....this old lady in Vegas told me about it. She uses it on her lilies...

Think i'll stick with bacillius subtilis found in serrinade. Proven to work and is for sure safe.

Yes I remember this article. Does anyone remember the frequency that OS recommended spraying? Maybe once a week? 2 weeks?

I miss those old posts, they were a great reference.

pez · Aug 17, 2006

Yes, I remmeber sbout the aprin too. I also recall something to do with baking soda/powder??????

I've all ready had to trim some mold off this year.

Spongedog · Aug 17, 2006

Great links Pez.. thanks. One resourse recommends spraying every 3 weeks. I don't know why I havne't been doing this. it sounds so easy.

Damn should have known this last month :chin:

Do not water the plants for the last week. Then when it comes to drying time it'll have less moisture and will only take 1 or 2 days to dry.
