Mildew or Frost

[Nightqueen]

So we grow and there's frosty goodness everywhere. And than there's more frost. And something suspicious lurking in between. Barely noticable. Maybe it's me overthinking and Searching too long , maybe it's mildew spores between trichomes. My phone sucks getting better images , this has been taken by reversing a lens and shot through that. Put her in isolation for precaution. But what do you think? Are the spores in between or am i just chasing ghosts again?

That definitely looks like PM...what's your humidity like during lights off?

It is pm. Took more images this morning and killed that plant. RH was to high , yeah. In the 60th... she is trash ..., the tent also was a bit too crowded. Doesn't matter, it's part of the game. Still sad to let her go 2weeks before being done. Hsd started her in june...so she was big lady... But the cleaning now gives me headache...

Ive heard theres sprays you can use on pm during flower to kill it. Not sure which ones though. Never had to deal with it before. Sorry for the loss though. I know what its like to have to ditch a plant in late flower. Though mine was a true herm

Yeah it hurts a lot - at the same time, it's nature's product. She had above average potential, and I just trashed a half year of work - I don't smoke that under any circumstances. Some might spray or wash their buds, but no thx, that feels just wrong.
Anyway, it's sad but nothing for me to be mad about, had a blast growing her and learned a lot.

Lost Coast makes some good stuff for this.

An old school method is to make a milk (yep that milk) solution consisting of one part milk, two parts water and spray it all over the plant….

Well, that's fine in veg. And there an effective one too. It works best with milk not from the packs but from cow/farmer directly from my expirience.
Baking soda should also work. But with golfball sized, rockhard buds I don't see me spraying them with milk-water-solution that late in process, no matter how empty the stash would be .

Field horsetail contains silica - when making a tea of it it should also help - at least against the fake mildew that grow under leaves. But silica is great must have imho anyways.

Nice we sum up different ways to battle the evil at different stages, thx for your and everyone elses great input!
