Finished Week 3 of Flower and watching it like a hawk for any hint of PM. Did have to spray occasionally on a few leaves, but total spots found were less than 10 for all three plants. I perform DAILY inspections, LEAF BY LEAF, ensuring I do not suffer the same fate I encountered on my first grow. Did some light LST'ng, but more really like pulling down slightly, any very tall stems. Removed remaining fan leaves that aren't on a node with an active bud site, mostly all bottom level leaves.
All in all, some great bud growth. I can say The Bling is a very lanky and upright plant. I still have all the LST wires attached as there is still tension for it to grow straight up! Mimosa has the most bud sites and even growth. Napali Pink is also growing well. Has been unaffected by PM from early on through today. If you are looking for a hearty, PM-resistant plant, Napali Pink is it.
@Growdaddy420, thanks! I can't wait to see how she progresses...learned a lot from my first indoor grow, so hopefully 2nd time around will work out even better!
They're still vegging, so I'd go hard and alternate serenade and garden Friendly Fungicide with some liquid copper. That's just me, though. I have never dealt with PM, but I do treat with mild solutions to help prevent.
@FoTwenny! Hey there! Check out Week 6. They have bounced back big-time! I did some more research and sprayed them with a potassium bicarbonate/veg oil/Dawn/water solution. Suffered some burned leaves in the process, but they all recovered nicely!
@greenflipcali89, It's a new regimen and haven't seen negative effects, but I only use the copper up until 12/12. I continue Serenade until buds begin to form. My current plan only adds the AG Garden Friendly if there is an active infection. I also use a mild solutions with been and potassium silicate, which both have antifungal properties.
