Got mildew.. get ATAK

just another product like greencure then cheers for the review

IMO, the greencure @ 25% strength (which is what I have always used it at) works better at knocking out the PM, but it seems to take a toll on the plant in the form of premature hairs maturation and the overall dark green leaves from the overdose of K if you use it more than a couple times a week. The ATAK was less effective on the mildew it seems, but the plants love it! I believe that there is some sort of immune boost or something positive occurring with the ATAK.

Thankfully I've never had PM but I have used ATAK against the bane of my life LSF and it stopped it dead too which I was surprised and pleased by

At the 1 TBS/gallong ratio I mentioned I didn't see the PM again for 10 or so days at least. After that it started slowly reappearing on the less hardier plants. I wouldn't think it would be necessary multiple times per week. If that's the case, maybe a stronger ratio is required?

In my experience one application of the greencure does usually work as you said for around 10 days. I have had a pretty bad attack before that required several applications before it was truly in check. For example, the picture on the first page of this thread is what I would consider a bad outbreak... When I had an outbreak like that one, it took 3 or 4 applications to knock it out. After about the third application I could see the side effects... It did knock out the mildew until harvest though. That is one think I like about the ATAK, is that you can apply it every other day and it doesn't seem to bother the plant at all, if anything it helps it.

I'm going to try the transport with my neem oil/karanja oil recipe and see how that works for my greenhouse. Truthfully, at this point, I have still had better results spot treating for PM with neem oil than anything else, but as most of you know that is not the best weapon to use late in flowering.

is this stuff the best choice?

this is the situation.. my buddy setup a 600w bulb in a 4x4 tent.. he has 10 plants.. in that tent.. 9 from seed.. and 1 clone.. everything is super green.. nice healthy.. he switched to flower.. 11/15 . and went into the tent.. to find 1 of his seed plants.. females.. has PM starting on the LEAVES.. so he bagged it.. cut that plant down.. and said fuck trying to save it..

what should he do if it was only on 1 plant.. and the others don't seem to be affected.. he doesn't want it to spread.. so whats the best method to get this gone..

his air flow and shit is fine.. hes gotta add some humidity.. as its 20-30%.. but anyone that can help..

ive never had PM.. so I have no clue wat works and wat doesn't.. anyone?
