powder mildew preventive

[Noonin NorCal]

I was wondering what i should use, we are well into flowering already. I have a jar of Green Cure and a bottle of Nuke Em, just wondering which would be the safest route cause we are into flowering. And is there any shelf life for GreenCure? Thanks

Not sure about either of the above for PM, but you should look up Actinovate.

 

[Foreverfamily]

AgSil16h - 1/4 tsp per gallon foliar
Actinovate - 1 tsp per gallon
Isopropyl - 91% ISO 1 oz per gallon
Yucca Extract - 1/2 oz per gallon
Insect Frass - 1.5 Tsp per Gallon
Aloe Vera Powder - 1/4 TSP per Gallon

Agsil and Aloe Vera will help (as will insect frass) in terms of inducing plants' SAR.

The answer I think you're looking for though is Greencure. A quick search should turn up either Silverback or Backcountry (maybe even D.S. Toker MD) advising to apply Greencure at 1/2 strength in order to avoid burning pistils.

I sprayed my plants with SNS244c from Sierra Science today. Organic, definitely one of the safest options.

Both are (allegedly) good for all types of mold/fungus/disease.

There's also been talk of Horsetail (Equestrium Arvense) being up to the task.

How late can you spray agsil and/or aloe vera?

how much green cure do you use? how late can you spray green cure?

As a foliar? I have been applying BT spraying every week to 10 days as a preventive for caterpillars. If i use Actinovate will it work if i don't have the pm present to use as a preventive? or do you have to have it for it to work and stop the spread of pm? Thanks

green cure works at about 1 tsp per gallon. i also mixed the green cure in a 5 gallon bucket first, stir and let sit for a couple minutes then stir and pour into sprayer. make sure it rinse of Green Cure after about 18-24 hours IMO

actinovate will work too, its also good against bud rot. the actinovate should be able to prevent pm of course. good job trying to be on top of it.

As a external grow I'd be making a breeze way to encourage wind thru the site, try to get them dry quicker, but really any chemical that will disrupt the surface tension will do, some use milk, or a proprietary solution ..I like to defend myself with neem oil, and if really bad dip them in a bath of 10% bleach and warm water(Cervantas)...leave under a fan to dry later, difficult for you, but you may still dip the buds, even laterals,
but as always any disturbance on your part may well set them spores a flying..?

Ended up buying a bag of Actinovate, shits expensive 100 $ for an 18 oz. bag. I have a 2 gallon atomizer ill be using to spray plants with, what would be a good light solution to gallon of water? And would it be safe to use as in addition with the BT ive been using, I wont be mixing the two together its probably not safe? and how often should i hit them up? Thanks again an sorry for the nube questions

 

[Oakhills]

Actinovate is 1/2 teaspoon per gallon of water for foliar feeding. You can soil drench it also at 3 tablespoons per 25 gallons of water

Once a week is good to start with. Try alternating BT and Actinovate every few days.

1 tsp per gallon every other day

Actinovate and Bt (dipel) can be mixed together

 

[MelloYello]

Actinovate and Bt mixed together - Week One

Spinosad and Actinovate mixed together --Week Two

A and B wk 3, S and A week 4, etc until the end.

Actinovate and Bt (dipel) can be mixed together

As in BT spray i use, Monterey Garden Insect Spray and Safer caterpillar killer combined in my atomizer. Would all 3 be to much? Thanks again everyone, its much appreciated

 

[DuskrayTroubador]

Not to hijack the thread, but BT is generally considered safe to spray on flowering plants, right?

 

[Photosynthesis]

Neem, agsil, and essential oils will keep you mildew free. It works great for me here in Denver. Where powdery mildew get's around more than a kardashian selfie on instagram.

Seriously though. EVERYONE has it here. Except me. Right now at least.

 

[Noonin NorCal]

I haven't applied neem, and haven't cause im already well into flowering. i heard from multiple people not to use during flowering...

use the actinovate every 7-14 days for preventative @ 1 teaspoon per gallon foliar spray but it's best mixed with ACT or at least something like hydroguard.

 

[Noonin NorCal]

Today is 7 days since i last sprayed with BT it would be the night to do it again, I think im gonna skip it and hit with Actinovate. How should i apply with my fogger/sprayer atomizer ? Just hit everything hard so it drips off the plant? thats how i been applying the BT. Any advice would help a lot i have an hour till sundown when i can safely spray without any sunlight. Thanks

 

[Noonin NorCal]

use the actinovate every 7-14 days for preventative @ 1 teaspoon per gallon foliar spray but it's best mixed with ACT or at least something like hydroguard. Use with a surfactant if not using ACT.

I been trying to look up ACT its not the mouth wash is it?
