Are you sure this isn’t powdery mildew?

I had posted a while ago asking if this was powdery mildew and people seem convinced it wasn’t PM. However it is everywhere and looks strangely like it. The water I use in my humidifier is very hard and a similar texture/color is on the humidifier. I don’t run an exhaust when my HPS is off so I wouldn’t be surprised if the room fills with the mist and gets all over my plants. Anyone feel like this is PM?

Oh dude, thems ruined.
Way past any return
You need air movement 24 hrs a day
All your doing now is spreading that shit everywhere.

Especially if it’s around other plants. Pitch it immediately. And check any other plants around it. And ill second the constant air movement @OleReynard . And not just recirculating the same air. Need fresh air intake if your inside.

Bummer, had bad PM two years ago.

Pitch it, clean your room and gear and give it another go.
Not sure what others use, I just use a bleach solution.

The exhaust goes outside but the intake is just from the room. Total bummer and might be a reminder why I shouldn’t buy clones from a dispensary. Oh well going to bleach everything and try again.

Sounds drastic but my experience not worth trying to recover cut your loss and toss .

Unless you need to save the genetics it’s tough to recover once it’s progressed that far .

Sorry dude.

I had an ugly outbreak this fall.


It sucks but pitch them and start fresh.

All the best

@ShiskaberrySavior this is a good point about saving genetics.
A buddy of mine setup a quarantine and managed to fight it back. Just depends on what you have and what your willing to do.

Seemed like alot of work to me - but if I was faced with losing prized cuts - I would attempt this as well.

Definitely looks like wpm to me

Catching it in veg can be salvageable. But flower gets touchy. You have to start to fight it with peroxide and water. but you have to wipe each leaf. if you spray on the pistils you can damage them and cause it to hermie or many other things. But to come back from an ‘outbreak’ you have to use chemicals or oils. And at that point you dont want to smoke a bunch of weed and neem oil…lol… but man makes me wonder about all that mexican brick pack we used to buy back in the day.

Growing outdoors I used a mix of 1 part milk 2 parts water and washed the leaves with a paper towel . Online info says once weekly. I did it daily to get ahold on the situation. We beat the wpm doing it this way .
