Powdery mildew or am I paranoid.

[BalconyBuds]

So this is my first plant. Was wondering if anyone sees powdery mildew in any of these shots or if maybe I’m just being paranoid. For context it’s an outdoor plant this last week has been humid and rainy. Iv done my best shaking the buds using fans and covering during rain but it hasn’t exactly been perfect. Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Have any pictures of the leaf that accompanies the flower.
Mildew usually can be spotted there first as it slowly spreads throughout.

I don't see anything that looks like powdery mildew in your photos. Here's a link that will tell you a bit about WPM,

Thank you for the feedback. I definitely could be. I’m color blind but to me it looks like there are spots that look like they have a silver like film on them beneath the trichomes.

powdery mildew looks like someone put flour on the leaves. When it gets bad it can be knocked off and look like a cloud of smoke. This isnt cannabis, but its a good example. 3 leaves are sitting on top of one healthy leaf. The one in the center right is at the beginning stages of powdery mildew. The leaf to the left is midway and the bottom one is late. you can also see some very early stage infection on the healthy leaf on the edges to the right of the pic. Your plants look fine to me. These leaves are from my garden, I have a lot of experience with pm outdoors.

As said it will show up on the leaves

If any of the leaves look like this then yes however I can’t see any pm from the pics posted
I posted some lesser infected ones to give you a idea

Good luck

Please post pictures of your leaves. I understand that you're concerned about your buds but if you are not showing any leaves on your plant that looks like its been dusted in flower, you don't have WPM. There are other fungal infections that show up in your buds, but even then all these close-ups you've been posting do not show all we need to see. As a rule, if you want help on a forum you should post at minimum a whole plant picture from above, a whole plant picture from the side and pictures of exactly what you want us to look at. WPM is not usually diagnosed with close up trichome pictures.

Let's see some whole plant pictures please.

@BalconyBuds - I don't see any signs of WPM. I do see a few places where it looks like insect damage. I would do a thorough inspection of the leaves both front and back. Take pictures and post in this thread anything you see that you have questions about.

Insects That’s what I was thinking tbh

 

[BalconyBuds]

Yes I definitely can confirm insect damage. I was treating with neem oil throughout veg and wiping the leaves during the first week of flower. Iv been hands on with it every day and only seen maybe 5 bugs. Even when looking with the microscope I see no webbing and no eggs or insects. Here are some current photos. Thanks again for all the responses.

Photos aren't here ... you can "edit" and add them ... You've done well with your grow so far. Outdoors, its hard to keep leaf hoppers from stopping for lunch from time to time. I'll come back to look at the photos
