Have you've ever gotten mold on an Auto Flower?

Considering whether to invest $20 and buy some Greencure for cure & prevention of mold.

Are Auto Flower's prone to mold, just like a regular strain?

There is a chemical we use in orchid growing for mold called Cinnamide--$25.00 for a tiny bottle. One of our speakers told us how to make it. Get a bottle of 60% rubbing alcohol and stick a cinnamon stick into it and let it sit for a couple of weeks until it turns brown. Shake it once in a while. The longer it sits the better it is but it will work after only a few days soak. Put it into a spray bottle and spray the plants--hold your breath and ventilate. The alcohol will evaporate leaving no residue and the cinnamon will stay giving a residual effect. Of course cinnamon is a wonderul antifungal. This will also kill bacteria as well as any insects like spider mites. Cheap and easy. If you spray late in the grow you will have nice flavoured smoke. I've used it on sensitive orchids, and of course my weed without any damage. I recommended it to some Cali growers who found it worked great.

Does alcohol affect trichomes? I use alcohol spray sometimes early to control mites and other nasties, but not once trichome production starts.
