@gmslave has it right, also try to increase you air flow to prevent it from coming back.

how many times should we spray with milky water in case of powdery mildew when we are in bloom? do you have to spray with this solution every day?Several people here advised me to dilute the milk spray with water, I did it, I diluted 400 ml of milk with 1200 ml of water, then I sprayed the plants in the tent, since they are grown in scrog, it is difficult to get everywhere.

I've had issues with PM in the past. Safers brand 3 in 1 seems to work temporarily but it always comes back. Also seems like it may deteriorate the trichomes on a flowering plant. RH 50% I currently am using a worm casting foliar spray and all is staying well. Any more tips?

Difficulty identifying leaf problem - maybe it's insects?I'm having trouble figuring out what's going on with my plant. The cotyledons and lower fan leaves are getting irregular shiny patches varying in size underneath, with yellow spots directly above them on the top side. It's really hard to photograph the shiny patches. Thrips?

Small white spots on leaves in germination phase.Does anybody know if those small white spots are ok? I have water 7 pH and I add some citric acid to lower it to 6 pH, when I sprinkle the soil I lightly sprinkle the leaves as well and I'm not sure if it's the effect of dry citric acid or something else. Thanks.

Possible mold/mildew - I ask a ton of grow questions but figure someone else might learn if I do well or f up. Good community here Mildew? This has been on certain leaves of my plants since I got them so I didn't think much of them. But as I'm about two weeks into flowering, I want to see if this is possibly an issue. Have okay airflow in the tent but could be better. Humidity is 55% atmosphere. Thoughts?
