Had mildew. What would you do?

Had mildrew... Sprayed the leaves of the Super Silver Haze with 3% hydrogen peroxide 5 minutes before lights out. I am in flowering week 5. Is there anything left to save? Should I cut away all the dried out areas, or will that help?

These are aphids. You can quickly get Spruzit or another plant pest control product, preferably something organic for vegetables. If you want to be 100% sure, invest in a fogger. If you’re unsure what that is, RAM offers something like that. With it, you can regulate the humidity or simply use water. For my pest control solution, I mix 1L of water with 10ml of product. Pour it into the tank and place the fogger in the tent at the end of the light cycle. Fill the tent with mist once, and make sure it's dry again before the start of the light cycle—otherwise, you might get burn damage. Alternatively, use a spray bottle and gloves. Spray each leaf thoroughly, both from the top and bottom, and ideally wipe them off. Always remember: anything you touch with the gloves afterward will carry aphids! Best regards, Tomix👽

Hi mate as you're well into flower I'd try and keep her going just to see if you can save her or not, a little experiment lets say... first off I'd let her dry out almost go and find some horsetail if a park and boil for 30 mins and let cool over night, strain and mix 4 parts water 1 part the tea and spray that on like b4 just b4 lights out also giving about 1ltr to the pot..maybe silver bullets if u want to spend cash... Good luck pal.

That h2o2 won't cure WPM. Nothing will cure it. You can continue to cut it out when you see it.. fight the good fight, but it'll likely continue to get worse. None of the home remedies or concoctions work, fyi. It may look a little better for a day or two, but all those sprays do is spread it around even more. It'll drip underbuds on stems and grow there etc.. places you normally wouldn't see it at least early on. if the foliage has life in it, i would not cut them off. unless it has a colony of wpm growing on it, of course. WPM is usually caused by poor environmental controls - most likely hitting the dew point after lights go off... temps can drop precipitously and ~60% RH quickly turns to 100% RH if not careful. Bigger the canopy / warmer the operating temps, the more likely this is the cause. Cut generously around it... better to take a bit more than too little. Fix your environment and it'll have a chance to stop the spread. This is almost always self-inflicted due to environmental controls. it is a hard lesson to learn. It often happens after lights out, so you need a wireless probe or something that can log the data to see how close you get to dewpoint etc... stay a few degrees away from it as best you can. more often in flower, because we amp up th elights for 12 hours of operation vs 18. Now that absolute humidity goes higher and when the temps fall even farther from a higher peak RH% potentially skyrockets even if you use a dehum.

Heyo, first of all waaaaay too much light, waaaay too much. Get rid off the plants, cant help it. And yes cutting dead material always helps, its a breedingstation for mold and deseases. Dead plants wont protect themselves, but now its too late i guess. For next time tho

Sadly you didnt have mildew, you still have it. I can still see it in the lower parts of the plant. It does not just sit on the leaf surface, it penetrates through the whole plants tissue and is unstoppable. Spraying stuff on it might only make it worse due to the water content... You cannot sterilize the whole plant, so there sadly is nothing left to save here. Dont risk your health, it is not worth it. Cut it off and throw it away. I do not recommend to try to save or consume it.
