Also apply once every 3 weeks and don't go over 1/8tsp per gal or you will burn your plants.

well, about to mix up a gallon of oxidate. 1.25 ounces to a gallon... this stuff is going to last awhile

is the oxidate better than the exel lg ??

No... Nothing is better then exel lg as far as treatment goes... Eagle 20 ain't food safe. Oxidate and all that shit just kills the spores on the outside. Exel works from inside out. The only thing better then all the above is making sure you have fans blowing everywhere and that you trim the bottom 1/3 to 1/2 of your plant before a pm breakout to make sure it doesn't happen to you. Prevention is better then all of the above. If your stuck already though then no nothing fucks with the omri certified food safe systemic fungicide that boosts your blooms and you can run up until the harvest. Aka exel lg.

Oxidate can also be used as a systemic . It will kill botrytis spores l when sprayed . the correct way to use it is, you spray every day for the first three days then once a week till mold spores are gone . I been using it for over ten years . It dissipates as soon as it drys . If used the right way it works very well . As a systemic use three to four table spoons to one gallon of water in your rez . The same applies as a spray.

seems like it will kill phythium and other things from what i read. I do like the fact i can spray buds and leaves without worry and that it dries quickly.

have you used any of the other products from the oxidate people? seems like i recall them saying to use the oxi with something else when running it in ones reservoir.

obviously prevention is best, but sometimes shit happens

everything I'm reading says to use every 7 days. so you haven't had any issues going more often?

after mixed, how long will the solution last? i couldn't find anything about that

i'll be getting a bottle of Exel LG tomorrow. Good tip QBM. Checked it out. Never had Pm till now and I don't want sulfur tasting buds if I can avoid it.

Alti, if this is PM vectored by root aphids all I can say is that Exel LG didn't touch the PM. Not as a foliar, not as a drench.

have you not had good experiences with Excel?

It didn't do what it was supposed to do, at all, in any way, shape or form. Greencure was more effective on the fruiting bodies.

Bart just gave me another reason to like OxiDate even more.

It has to be used immediately. In fact, I don't think I have a single Tx product that says it can remain useful in a mixed state for any period of time (>24hrs).

Seamaiden, thank you for the prompt response!

I figured given the base that it wouldn't keep very long. I ended up drenching my plants with about 1 gallon of the stuff. Will look in a little while to see if i need to spray again. i've got an order of more grow equipment coming today which will allow me to move a bunch of plants to a new system so that i can get better air flow and what not on the current system.

Is there a reason for me to buy greencure or will oxi serve me well enough?

You sure you were using it at the right strength and mixing it right? Myself as well as about 6 others I know use it and are all pm free...

I sprayed last night with oxidate at 5tbls/gal or 1 to 50 didn't seem to make a dent. The fuzz is still there this morning (although a little discolored looking) With both SNS and Greencure the pm was gone immediately. I'm right on the cusp of harvest. Will do some tests today with the ox, add a little more see what happens. Any chance its working even though the fuzz is still there?

Blackbart: so maybe it requires multiple sprays?

Yes, I'm extremely certain. I read labels thoroughly, usually two or three times, before I even break out a container to mix in.

I got it to help treat PM that was vectored by root aphids, so that might be the issue, but unlike all the other products I normally use, including simple JMS Stylet oil, it didn't even make a dent in the presence of fruiting bodies.

I got my Exel LG today. We have plants in different stages in 3 rooms. The starter room has cutting and small plants that have just rooted. In the Veg room we have 2 ages of plants and in the flower room we have 2 ages of plants. What I understand from QuarterbackMO post is that I use 1/8 tsp per Gal of water and water our plant every three weeks with this mix. Should I use it on our plants in all stages? Should I foliage spray also with excel LG or should I continue to use Greencure to foliage spay?

Just feed it in with your water every 3 weeks and if you wanna kill spores on the outside already baking soda and high ph water works good... The dosage on medium to big plants is 1/8tsp I wouldn't go over 1/2 strength on small ones but you can use it...

website says 27.00 for 2oz
Click to expand...

That seems a little too strong there if it's 27ml to 2 oz water that your talking about there... All I know is 1/8tsp per gal does the job and doesn't burn up your plants.. This shit will burn your plants bad if you use too much shit ain't no joke don't underestimate it..
