Just because someone tried 5 different kinds of mold solution does not mean they do not work. I can attest to Franksters solution as can others. I have a fried who had mold for 6 months in his tent, no matter what he did. He bought a bottle of Franksters solution and in 1 week..mold was gone. He repeated the treatment again and it has been almost 9 months and he as not seen the reemergence of mold. A side effect of the solution is PEST CONTROL..thrips, gnats, white fly, mites..etc..targeted without killing off beneficial predators. Most stuff on the market uses the cheapest ingredients available (to keep cost down / profits up). Frank is a chemist...my daughter is a bio-med engineer working for water department. She also told me they use nano micelle solution to deal with mold for the water district. It couldn't hurt...

Likewise, I have one about 20’ from the edge of my garden. Never knew that may be the reason I battle PM outdoors.Dang I got one in my back yardThanks for the info! I grow indoors but knowing there’s something 40 feet from my yard that’s a easy carrier for it
H202 sprays and Flying Skull Nuke Em is what got me through to the end of the season. Anticipating the same this year. :(

Just as a side note for outdoor growers, especially backyard or patio grows... Keep your girls far away from neighboring garden plants, especially cucumbers, squash, pumpkins, etc. Pretty much anything in that broadleaf squash family. PM goes for them quite aggressively and that shit spreads on the wind like herpes in a whorehouse.
I speak from years of backyard gardening. I've had cases so bad it there was no saving anything. Cut and burned. I don't grow cukes any more because if it. Sadly, a next door neighbor has a sizeable garden, and her cukes and squash have been loaded with it (not at all unrelated to the high temps and crazy humidity this season). Her plants are all brown and withered and damn near dead due to it. But somehow, she thinks she's gonna pull cukes off that shitshow of a garden. And its all grown into a tall trellis, getting it nice and high up into the air so the breeze can scatter that shit to the 4 winds.
PM... The gift that just keeps on giving...

Yes it's called white powdery mildew the only way I know how to get rid of it safely without having to destroy your entire crop is 2 dilute some hydrogen peroxide spray your plants until it's gone I wish I would have taken my own advice but no I listen to somebody else that work in the nursery who said oh everybody is using this and told me to use somebody called serenade unless you like to have your plants to be chemically contaminated I would suggest you do not use Serenade it's a chemical from Mexico on the bottle it says Organic show me a picture of tomatoes but the way it blistered my wife's lips when she caught a very small with a whiff of it through closed doors from my basement to the living room I don't think so I would suggest you used a diluted hydrogen peroxide- - - - I had to kill all my young ladies because I use something that said organic safe for food on the bottle oh and everybody else is using it yeah okay that tells me not to smoke any body Elsa's pot

Not skim milk. It has to be full milkfat. vit D regular milk. It's the milkfat that does the trick. Mix it 50/50, then spray on plants. Rinse after drying. 3 or 4 treatments should kill all of it.

LOL with a name like Nuke Em yeah okay I would do do a heavy research on that and never believe what it says on the damn bottle I can tell you Terry. I don't know I didn't look at the rest of your list yet I'm kind of afraid to. if serenade is on your list wrap it up man it says it's Organic and safe for food on the bottle but it's not. Some kind of Mexican kill all chemical from Mexico organically safe my ass

That's true you shouldn't have dilute milk and I have heard it works on white powdery mildew I don't know what other kind of bugs it will attract but yes I have heard it works but I think hydrogen peroxide work better but that's only me honestly I couldn't really tell you all's I know is I should have used it on mine instead of the Serenade when you're starting from seeds it will take up to six months to get going again Peri-Peri. Good luck with the Milkman if you use it! And don't tell the butler:-) :-) :-)

By the way when you only have a certain amount of time the words should kill it , are not to enlightening you need to hear words like it will kill it especially if you're on an outside grow I mean what happens if it doesn't work you're that much further into the bud cycle where you don't want to use anything at all but I know nothing about outside grow or outside cultivation I should say but I do know the difference between should and will good luck to all of you enjoy what you can and forget about the rest

Hydrogen peroxide can kill your plants if you use too much.
The reason for diluting the milk is so that the light can penetrate faster and alter the structure of the protein that kills the mold.
Milk will not hurt the plants. The Hydro P will. Always go with the least damaging option. You can always take it out and burn it if nothing else works.

You're right if you use too much you can kill your plants so use your brain don't use too much but if you want to go through all the work in a hassle with using milk and wiping every leaf off afterwards that's up to you

That is another reason for mixing it with water. It rinses off easily. No leaf wiping. Spray rinse.

Don't get me wrong I'm not telling you what to do at all! Please by all means use your own judgment. Investigate take nobody's word that is unless you really believe in that person it's really believe in somebody is a very nice thing but try to check things out yourself regardless 33.

And I certainly don't want to argue with anybody here go ahead and do anything this gentleman tells you because I'm pretty sure he knows a hell of a lot more than I do I was never trying to suggest that I knew more than anybody at all but don't used Serenade that's for sure when you can blisters somebody's lips through closed doors full story below without even smoking it God help you if you do smoke it

Absolutely. But we have read research that shows the effectiveness of the milk treatment so, we know it works. It is far more gentle than hydrogen peroxide which puts it ahead.
But if I (and others) had not read the reports we would beat it to death looking at all sides of the issue. We do not just trust here, we research.

Everybody seems that have their own recipe- - - - anymore I pretty much turn to a food-grade diatomaceous earth for killing almost anything that's attempting to harm my garden can't get too much more organic then food grade Diatomaceous Earth- - - ->
