Since being a part of OG I rember seeing some concoctions for a preventative spray to introduce during pre flower for bud rot …

Upstate we r famous for rainy seasons when our buds r in their prime fattening up …

Anyways was just curious to a follower spray recipe to help in preventing mold !?

I use Mycostop bio-fungicide, personally, but horticultural oil can be used as a prophylactic. The mycostop is a much better solution in my opinion: Oil really only lasts a week, and is washed off with rain, and then needs to be re-applied for continued protection.

I start by sprinkling some into my rockwool cubes when I transplant clones to larger cubes and also dip the clones in a solution containing the mycostop at that time. A few days before going into flower I like to give the garden another foliar spray containing the mycostop and two weeks into flower I apply a final foliar application for good measure. I live near the coast so humidity is high so I need to stay vigilant with my IPM strategies.

If I see mold I cut it out aggressively. Once you go “hey is that bud rot?” It’s too late.

Best advice - choose earlier varieties for your climate or ones suited to wet weather.

I’m sure others have IPM ideas but that’s how I’d roll.

The strain options I have for outdoor success are very limited.

Use it as a preventative and I haven’t had a touch of mold or mildew on any buds yet in two years (indoors):
