Powdery Mildew Rx for flowering plants?

[vapedg13]

I bought the zone and penetrator.....they make different penetrators

one has .006-0-0 as numbers the other has .008-0-.003 its penetrator gold for grow or flower.

Sprayed my GDP the other plants that were infected...so far so good.

If this shit doesnt work...I'm getting a sulfur vape

Which Penetrator did you use, Regular or Gold?

burning sulpher is the only way to go.

word.
I used the zone + penetrator, and like pirate says, it works but you REALLY gotta be on top of it. And if you are having to spray a decent number of girls its A LOT of work. It keeps the powder mildew at bay but it will ALWAYS eventually show back up, no matter what. Once you got it, you got it for good. Dehumidifiers, tons of air flow high temps, it will still come back.
The sulphur vaporizer is the only way to for sure get rid of PM...
However, it does sorta slightly fuck up/stunt the newest growth but not all that too bad. I definitely wouldnt wanna use the sulphur vape past say 30days in flower, even then...

how do you guys burn your sulpher?? i have been burning sulpher for almost 2 weeks now.. every other day for 6 hours and i have not noticed a decrease in the mildew.. maybe even a slight increase..? and the sulpher burner is working because the hook its hanging from is coated in sulpher crystals after every burn. any help would be appreciated. and i turn off all fans. and burn with the lights off.

 

[JeffSpicoli]

holy shit, 6 hours is way longer than i ever ran it. I felt like 2 hours was a sweet spot, and 3 hours slightly hurt the growth tips.
I would use the zone + penetrator as a way to 'clean' the plants of the PM, then maybe a day or 2 later run the sulphur burner. If that doesnt help then i dont know what will...

 

[Greyskull]

i have about a 350-500sqft grow area... this is how i burn sulpher...

i burn at lights out, ALWAYS.
before I burn, I spray all my plants down with plain water. the sulpher vapor sticks to the wet leaves.
i'l turn off all my fans (exhaust & oscillating).
i hang the burner w/chain about 2-3ft over the plants (and 2-3ft from the roof/ceiling) in the middle of the grow op.
i add about 2-3 tablespoons of sulpher to the cup (so the sulpher is about 1/4" thick layer).
I put the burner on a timer and burn for 2-4 hrs.
about halfway thru I'll don protective goggles & a mask and go into the op SUPER FAST and turn on the oscillating fans and get out! turning on the fans ensures the vapor gets everywhere it needs to go.
after the burn is done i'll go in really fast and turn on the exhaust fans, and vacate the premises for another 20-30min. then its safe to go in and start working....

if you are fighting pm now burning sulpher every 2-3 days for 2-3 weeks should knock it out dead for you. theres a good reason the burner is referred to as their silver bullet by so many.

*if you have sprayed neem i the last 30 days don;t burn sulpher or you could have some unhappy plants.... neem & sulpher are not friends.

good luck man hope this helps you.

thanks greyskull thats exactly the kind of info i have been looking for.. a excellent tutorial on burning sulpher which is very hard to find. unless i am just crazy.

i think the plain water is an excellent idea and im going to try that out.

thanks again!

 

[vapedg13]

I bought both and tried them on different plant to test the results

Buy these for your fans.....remote controll outlets...you can hit the remote and it turn your power on....Ebay $20

 

[VagPuncher]

Gotta admit it. Marks Z+P worked very well.

10 days has went by and no signs of PM

I cant have a sulfur burner. I live in a condo and will kill eveybody if I do.

How many applications have you made?

 

[Rollin Face]

i spray Z+P every time i take my plants out, which is once every 3-4 days, and through spraying and letting them drip dry in a bathtub with no air movement has kept PM away for about 3-4 months, its a trip, really worked, BUT i was lazy bout doing it in flower and it came back.

this run im spraying even in flower and in at week 3 12/12 with no visible PM, knock on wood.

OG grows and swells like a motherfucker without the disease.....try it some time

For some reason i have been really lucky this grow, or standard house and garden fungicides really work.

I had bad powder mildew my last few crops, but was able to somewhat control it with sulfer based fungicide.

One my current grow, 20% of my veg plants showed small patches of PM, i doused them HEAVILY over the course of two-three days, with standard sulfer based fungicide that cost me only 8 bucks.

I also bought a sulfer bomb that i was gonna set off however the PM never came back? I have checked my plants everyday and none are showing any signs of it. My current humidity is around 45ish, temps have been pretty high like 80+ when the lights are on.


The key to killing PM is SULFER SULFER SULFER.

*knocks on wood that i dont find a patch tommorow!!

i hope u dont have PM either bro but UGH, sulfur??? so nasty - - - i hope you wash your flowers b4 harvest....i use to do Sulfur, but id feel super guilty i cant do it anymore unless they are in veg and i plan on rinsing them before flowers start

I agree sulfur is the way to go in any PM situation. I have ran as long as 7-8 hours in 1 session as it was recommended on the instructions for heavy active infections. I have had very little to no ill side effects. Some hairs died back but never really affected bud growth. Nothing compared to what the pm was doing at least.

Now I just run it once in veg before flower and never worry about it.

 

[opt1c]

if the pm comes back you need to clean your grow room or get a hepa filter for your intakes; i had pm; once; hasn't come back... zone+penetrator did the trick for me... just use it on my moms and the cuts are happy and pm free

 

[headimonster]

i do sulfur in veg and penetrator+zone in beg. weeks of flower and do a spray of Dr.Dorights (all organic spray) week 4-5

 

[vapedg13]

Fuck in A...this Dutchmaster doesnt work ..it still comes back man...might as well just use milk or hydrogen peroxide alot cheaper works just as good..... The PM comes back about a week later after dutchmaster treatment

Plus the dutchmaster made the hairs on my GDP and Purp Kush turn red and stalled the growth for about 3 days

mabey the h202 and the penatrator.............they have copper srays that work like the zone does... thats it man I'm getting a vape


What they need is a spray or bomb... that is systemic and stays in the plant for 30-45 days....almost all the products we use for Powdery Mildew state repeat treatment at 7-14 day intervals
