Thank you @GrowerGoneWild, @Calyxander, @ryasco for your detailed replies! All great information! I am located in Northern Colorado and didn’t think PM would be a problem due to it being incredible dry here.

Happy to say a very light spray of potassium bicarbonate (seems like expensive baking soda due to baking sodas chemical name sodium bicarbonate) took care of the PM. I had sprayed them weeks prior and it changed the color of the hairs and kind of freaked me out that it could have given me botritus. I mixed it @ halfstrength (1 tbsp/gal) and sprayed a very fine mist using a very nice hand sprayer after lights off and right before lights on. I made sure to spray when the plants were cool. Ill post some pics soon!

If you want a tip, if you can find some Fulvic and mix 3-5 ml per liter with the potassium bicarbonate it helps chelate and transfer nutrients through leaf and plant. I like Fulpower, Lotus likes another source that is scraped off a mountain and has more minerals.I use mine because i like to use things closer to home. Shilajit is the Himalayan fulvic and humic. Both will strengthen the plant while thickening the leaves. For foliar humic is too big to pass through the leaf so fulvic is primarily what you want to use. I might try some shilajit for me however.

@ryasco I am using Emerald Harvest nutes for this round along with many others, but I would assume Emerald Goddess their “plant tonic” would contain one if not both fulvic and humic. I’ll do some research .

good air flow is a good prevention method imo
