I had the same thing, I have hard water and this white dust was from the humidifier. Try cleaning your humidifier (vinegar worked for me). I say this because I see the dust on your pot too.

Is this powdery mildew?Could this be powdery mildew on the pictures? I have to add that the spots were a little more fluffy but I removed some of it with my finger. The weather has been really dry, so I thought it was impossible, but it still looks like it. If it is powdery mildew, what should I do?

Pollen sacks or powdery mildew?I noticed what I thought was powdery mildew on a leaf, then noticed funny looking things right next to the powder. I think these are pollen sacks, and if they are I want to know if anything is recoverable, or if I need to scrap the whole plant/grow. "Second Grow" on my profile

I'm starting to see some white spots on one of my plants and the bottom leaves are stating to yellow is it just fungus or potentially thrips? My other plant beside it doesn't seem to have to have the same white spots on it so I'm not sure if its spreadable.

Powdery mildew or just... chalk?Can someone confirm if this is powdery mildew or just chalk from misting, please? The walls of the grow tent had a little chalk on them too so that's why I am not a 100% sure. Temperatures have been quite optimal for late flower and humidity has not even been over 40%.

On my other grows I've had some issues with pests. The worst was white powdery mold, but I've also seen leaf miners, aphids etc. I want to treat this plant pre-emptively with something like BioNeem. Is it safe to do that at this stage of bloom? Can you recommend safe alternative

White powder I've been noticing some sort of white dust on the bottom leaves and stem. I wiped them off with a kitchen towel with water 2 days ago, but i noticed today that they are back. They look like cigarette aches. I'm not sure if it's powdery mildew. I'm not sure it's visible in the pic
