I found a plant in my house with PM on it (not a pot plant).
But … since that would mean I probably now have a bunch of spores in the air, I wanted to spray the pot plants to make sure we don’t go down that route any time soon.

So, google PM preventions indicates that baking soda in water, spray!

So that’s what I did, then noticed it looked like my plants were covered with overspray from a paint operation.
I imagine the new growth will make it all but unnoticeable within about a week, but is there a better preventative than making my plants look speckled?

They have been happy as all get out since I sprayed them. So it certainly didn’t do them any harm, but I see it every time I look at it irritates me.

Micronized sulfur, Dr. Zymes, h202, plenty of airflow helps greatly too.
 
Micronized sulfur kills pm on cannabis. Will kill it on other plants too. Just don't use in flower past week 1
 
I’ve used it inside off/on for years. Used it outside on Twin2 this year.

Does it work…IDK…seems too. At least 50/50.

Sulphur, Safer’s spray, Ortho all will help.
 
Whole milk diluted down works well also.
Agreed, i always read that it works best outside on a hot sunny day.
Idk how i feel about using milk tho. Even diluted down on a hot summer day i feel like its gonna curdle or just be down right gross.
