Neem for mildew is a bad idea..
The heavy hitter for PM is sulphur and you cant use it within 3 weeks of a neem application. And neem will not stop PM.
@Dirtbag can you help him on this? I'm cluelessI got her to fill in the width of the 4x8 @Aqua Man @boomgagem
How do you suggest I use the Sulphur I have I attempted to burn it and it didn’t work
Imo I would run the lights on full all switches on. The higher the amount of photons you can get to the plant will make far more difference than the spectrum in your situation. At least that's my opinion.View attachment 1020399View attachment 1020400View attachment 1020401View attachment 1020402View attachment 1020404View attachment 1020403View attachment 1020405View attachment 1020406View attachment 1020404
This is what she looks like now. The width of the tent has been reached. I don’t have enough light for the length of the tent, I my going to let her stretch up now. I’ll start the preflower process now. Just a red light spectrum for 14/10 off over the next 2-3 weeks. Then 48hrs of darkness then 12/12 for bloom and I’m going to drop the temp to 68 night and 75 day.

Is your sulphur burner homemade or store bought? It has to heat it to somewhat specific temp to vaporize properly. How did you attempt the burn?
Ahh, yeah they can be a bit tricky to tune so they work correctly. What did you use for a heat source? And were you using elemental sulphur pellets designed for a burner or just off the shelf powdered sulphur? I made mine with a 100w ceramic reptile heat lamp inside a tin can, but I also used a FLIR thermal imaging camera to dial in the distance for the sulphur cup so the molten sulphur pool was the right temp to vaporize quite heavily without burning it.Yes it is home made watched a YouTube video but it doesn't work.

They arent cheap to buy, but the store bought ones work really well.

I have a 80 watt ceramic reptile bulb and I rigged one some cans and some brackets I had l. I get a molten pool and a super strong smell but the PM didn't go away. It didn't get worse either. I used a sample of some green clean I got from this hydro store and that he's cleared it up but not all the way. What is the temp I have to get the liquid? I'll invest in a thermo imaging camera if I can get rid of PM.
Keep all the spectrums onI was under the impression that red spectrums make the plants stretch in combination of shorter days. From 20 hours to 14. If change the time will she still preflower without the red spectrum?
I have sulphur pellets but I will get sulphur powder to drench the leaves cause im.not feeling the green clean. Im in veg not flipping until a the pm has been gone for at least a week. Once remove the leaves I will bleach and clean the tent then sulphar rinse and burn the sulpher. Thank a lot!You dont need a FLIR, they're crazy expensive. But the ideal temp is around 140 celcius, mine runs about 145-150c or so by the end of the burn. Sounds like yours might have been working fine. It wont get rid of PM if you already have it, it just prevents it from happening in the first place and will stop it from spreading if you use the burner once every 5-6 days or so. If you already have PM, you need to very carefully remove all the infected leaves, if in Veg I'd hose it down with wettable powdered sulphur after removing all the infected tissue, then burn sulphur at least once every couple days for a week, then once every 5 days or so to prevent re-emergence.
It's also important to use sulphur pellets designed for burners and NOT the wettable powder you can buy at garden stores.
