cloning question

hey guys I put my plants into flowering 2 days ago and one of the plants I want to take a like 2 cutting to clone because I only had 1 seed of that strain. but my question is I think there might have been a chance of my plants having powdery mildew. I sprayed them the other day with a anti mild (organic spray) that I got from my grow store.. now if I take cutting and put them in my veg room with some seeds that im going to plant to night .. is there any thing I can do to the clones to make sure that they dotn have powdery mildew?

I read that neem oil can be used on plants to kill powder mildew.. is that true? should I coat the clones in that? but also if that will work will that screw up the cloning?? cause im going to use clone x and was going to 2 clones in a milk jug with the bottom cut off and in veg room.


oh and is 2-3 days in to flowering too late to cut clones?

Hey bad.
A 10% baking soda solution sprayed on the leaves will stop the powdery mildew. It makes the leaf surface a ph of 7 which makes PM unable to grow.

Yes you can take cuttings into flower.

What is a 10% mixture? would you recommend this on clones from dispensaries also? Cheers!

It's 1 part baking soda in 9 parts distilled or RO water.

Sure, just spray on leaves only and let dry.
1 part by volume? like 1 fl oz baking soda to 9 fl oz water.... Great! Do you wash the leaves off or just leave it on there indefinitely?

Yes, by volume.:)
You can use the spray solution or dust foliage.
Apply for 1-3 days.
