We get mold outside in the fall. I got some botrytis on one strain and had some PM here and there. I am not worried about the Blue Dream, but I am with the two Bubbas and the Pineapple Cough. (Who, by the way, has not begun to flower yet, worrying me just a bit.)
I got a little bit of botrytis in last year's light dep because I pulled tarp to the bitter end. This year, it was avoided.
I guess that is the next important discussion of the season. Mold prevention. Specifically Botrytis and Powdery Mildew... that's what I am up against. I am going to start with a very heavy dose of Kaligreen on the shady areas around the garden where the PM gets thick on the sweet pea.
How's the Ft. Collins cough coming along?
I know I did not continuously agitate last year causing it to come out of suspension and give a couple of plants toward the end of the application...but still. Not fucking with it again, especially in the face of recommended alternatives.

So the idea is to suppress it for now where it lies with a heavy hit of Kaligreen (potassium bicarbonate) which I have a massive quantity of from last year and which I will never again spray on my plants.

I might have stopped pulling ealier, but there was a full moon that got in the way. I might have avoided foxtailing on the chemd if not for that moon. :shakes fist at moon:
(a)what alternatives? ... and if you know it was user error that caused your plants to burn, (b)there must be another reason you don't want to use it?
what, the oxidate stuff? You put oxy-clean on your plants?a: read the discussion. jeeze, just read the last 3 posts and you'll see the answer to your question.
b: must there be? if there were another reason, I would have mentioned it.
no more bud shots till full season starts a-poppin.
BG: no PM yet. Prevention is key.
