White Powder Mold??

[myst]

Is this white powder mold?
It has appeared on several fresh clones when I planted them in soil. Is it my soil? Should I replant them in fresh soil? Should I use neem oil?

Please help. Thank you.

high alkaline water will take care of it.....I use tap water at 8 ph to prevent powder mildew.looks like the begining of mildew to me....

Are you speaking of the little white dots? looks more like spidermites than mold to me.

I hope it's not spidermites... I sprayed them with a neem oil solution.... I hope this helps.... I'm changing their soil tomorrow....

i just has to deal with pm and from what i can see it doesnt look like it in your pic.

powder mold is easy to ride of with a sulfar burner. if you can hold the leaf and by hitting the leaf you see powder coming off then you know for sure. good luck

Yea 420KushMaster is rite about what PM is. If they are little white dots then it is Spider mites. Look on the underside of the leaf you can see mites. Neem will kill most of them but they are everywhere. Prevention is they key with Mites. Once your light goes out neem your plants down real good, especially on the undersides of the leaves, make them drip!

Remember prevention is the key. Just MO of course.

There is nothing on the undersides. I sprayed them with a neem solution. I'm about to throw out these plants, soil, and bleach everything.... I cant get spidermites... They'll drive me crazy.... they already are driving me crazy.... atleast this is in a contained area away from my flower room.....

never had luck with neems or a high PH water for getting RID of pm but the high ph water did help keep it minimal.

the ONLY thing that has ever worked for has been Concerns Organic Copper spray.

if you are 3 wks or less into flowering then in my opinion it is safe to use the copper spray. if your past the 3wk mark then i suggest either using high ph water or a mix of milk and water sprayed weekly.

if you have PM in flower then you likely have it veg too... for preventative care i also use the copper spray on the moms and babies. i would suggest using every 3-4 days for a total of 3 applications while in veg. once put to flower i would give them 2 more applications in the 1st week.

i've unfortunately had to do this 2 times(about 3 yrs apart) and both times i've erradicated the PM!

good luck,

p.s. personnaly i'd not use a sulfer burner in the flowering stage UNLESS it within the 1st 2 weeks of 12/12. just my opinion.

Look in to Sernade (sp) for PM.. Neem will work too plus it will knock back pest along with PM. Everyone should spray their non-flowering plants with neem now and again.
