mixed about 2ml in a gall of distilled water with wet betty by advanced as a spreader sprayed this morning various ogs etc.. no ill effects 12 hours later plants look unfazed. so far this product has no effect on the plants which is great. as a test i sprayed a couple plants 2 days in a row to see if it would hurt them no effect very cool.

nice viking epic by the way.Eagle 20 is a broad spectrum killa.....I betcha it would beat but rot to a damn pulp, after taking it's wallet, raping it's girlfriend and making it watch.
Krunchbubble, if I were gay I'd blow you. Such an awesome-O tip.
i know people who have, and it worked. personally, i would wait a day or two between using them......
Krunch. So I have lost too much bud to PM and I hate it more than anything in this hobby. Do you find that you run your humidity higher now that you use Eagle 20? Save money on dehumidifier costs? If so, what is your target humidity?
Thanks!
Thanks!

I mixed Eagle-20 and Floromite when I last sprayed, no issues at all. I sprayed this combo when I flipped to 12-12.
usually my humidity is around 30%. ran at 60% for a while and had some of my best yields to date....
i don't think humidity has anything to do with powder mildew....
Yeah. Here it's been REALY bad. Last round my humidity down below 40% and still got the pm.
Looking forward to the results without pm.
Let's not go off the deep end and suggest that moisture/humidity has NOTHING to do with PM. There's obviously some connection to it and the lifecycle of PM.
That being said, I'm not sure it's the MOST IMPACTIVE variable....
Clearly there can be other more important factors involved.
Beyond that, Krunchbubble is my hero.

appreciate the kind words.
ive always had low humidity, under 35% and had powder mildew for years at that humidity. had the dehumidifiers and all that, still got it.
so, personally i think humidity may have just a slight significance with powder mildew.....
just my personal experience........
Agreed. Was just speculating that VERY ARID conditions just don't support PM growth as well (like 0-20%). Additionally, VERY HUMID conditions (70%+) may also not be optimal.
All I know is that I had very poor environmentals when I went on vacation last year.....
Came back and PM was everywhere.
I think it's absolutely a combination of things in collusion with one another. You have to have the infectious vector to start.....(contaminated clone, or free floating spores).
Then I think it's a matter of having an environment that allows it to thrive, reproduce and spread.....(poor air flow, diminished lighting in the lower canopy).
But I digress......Eagle20 is so far the BEST thing I've encountered to deal with this heinous problem......
Since I hadn't heard about it anywhere except here......that makes Krunchy defacto "THE MAN".

there are multiple species of pm that thrive in various situations. for me the only real solution is a systemic treatment. i first heard of eagle 20 through progressive options a dispensary they had little info about it though and had recently begun using it all they knew was that it worked. but then i found krunchbubbles thread which has much more info and hands on experience. so very useful to us all.

by the way krunch there is another systemic product we should be aware of that is supposed to be just as effective for pm and is also a n agricultural turf style product. it is called BANNER MAXX i dont have as much info on it as eagle 20 but worth looking into one more weapon to use.
Before I read Krunch's thread....I was looking for MELTATOX (yet another systemic bad boy).....put out all sorts of inquiries....but to no avail. That stuff seems harder to get than an ice cube on the sun without an ag. license.
Just glad to have found this thread and valuable information. K+

i plan to use eagle20, then greencure, then eagle20, then greencure..
should I do the treatments a week apart?
I also plan to dip well rooted clones in eagle 20 and spray once or twice in veg for future grows..
Everything sound peachy?

eagle works 100% the FIRST time in my experience, thanks a grip krunch this stuff saved my ass. I've literally used 1ml out of the bottle and havent seen pm for 4+ months

thats totally unneeded simply use the eagle the greencure is useful if you have no choice but to spray late in flower.
