Why do clone people have it worse? You guys continue to get new clones and the clones come infected? Or is it something about keeping a strain alive for that long that makes it susceptible to PM?
The only spots of PM Ive seen so far are on my seed plants.

pm sucks.. ive had a shitty outdoor season so far.. caterpillars.. PM... and budrot from the caterpillar damage....
had to pull down the one with PM.. put a trashbag over it .. and cut it down..so it doesn't spread to the entire crop..

Im gonna spot spray with Serenade today. Only a few spots in the back, shady corners.
I was told that you can safely spray Serenade on flowers up to week 4 or 5 of flower.
Is this true?

CaCl2 is commonly used in AG to combat pm.

Taking in a california clone is like having unprotected sex with a $25 street hooker. You really want to try something new (like the "bobsled": one in the front, three in the back), but you also know your'e gonna catch every disease recognized by science, and possibly a few others you've never heard of and can't pronounce.
From what little I understand about seeds, the only thing they can give you is bad genes.
Once again, always avoid $25 corner coochie, but if you can't resist, I'd treat them when there as young as possible with something not OMRI certified.

You only get pm when plants don't have a thick enough pectate layer
The ONLY time?
So airflow, temp and humidity dont have nothing to do with it?

I hate to be the barer of bad news, but when I got home I noticed pm on the Bomb Threat and the SFV. Nothing a little einstein oil can't fix, but I think even in healthy plants, PM will thrive in the right conditions.
No because if the plant has a thick enough pectate layer and enough photosynthetic energy you can put that plant in a field of pm covered plants and it just won't get infected.
Fungus and pest pressures are indicators of declining plant health. Healthy plants dont succumb to pests and disease. I know , crazy concept !

Interesting stuff, this is a great conversation. Myclobutinil seems to be firmly accepted in this industry. I would suspect that most clones from reputable nurseries are dunked. I don't know it for a fact, but with some strains being south pm hores it's amazing to think they wouldn't.
I remember seeing some testing either here or on the farm showing tests from a plant treated with e20 in veg showed up with o ppm or ppb can't remember which threshold they used. Same plant showed I believe avid still in the plant from veg.
Do you guys dunk or spray? Ehat kind of prefect ion do you wear when you spray? Great point about grass, as a very avid golfer I can be assured I have been exposed to it for sure. In fact years ago I used to always put tees in my mouth while walking to and from the cart or push cart. It seemed convenient, but I got super sick from it once and never did it again. Way before I knew about myclobutinol and turf grass, but it happened.
How long do you feel the e20 gives you resistance to pm? Does it start to pop up a bit late in flower? Do you feel the e20 treated plants get it late at the same rate as non treated plants or do they get it slower, from some residual effect of the myclobutinol?
Indoor plants are never going to be as healthy as outdoor plants. Indoor lamps don't make them produce enough energy to truly be healthy. The sun also has UV , mold and mildews worst enemy
I like using MICRONIZED sulfur

Yea, not to mention indoor plants are crowded in with less than optimal air flow in a high humidity zone.
Going to try micronized sulfur, sounds interesting.
Love ya work brother 
This is the first year I can remember where I was happy to see it go. Fingers crossed for rain, the whole fire thing over there is almost post apocalyptic, so many fucking fires!
Love what can be done with photoshop.
I like the natural pic but the second pic is just draw droppingly gorgeous.
Schroom eatin time right there.
