flush with straight water ph 5.5-6.0.. some are just finicky. i couldnt tell on the powdery mildew. usually that just creates necrotic spots on the affected leaves and it dies. and it spreads to almost all vegetatia. flush and go from there. if you get some clean shoots clone them and try to save your genetics. good luck:thumbsup:

Still in those "Smart Pots"?

I did flush, then I had to repot because the canna coco is ruined if you do that come to find out. Flushing washes away some helpful bacteria and such that are naturally present. Everything is coming back around though. I am still in #5 and #7 Smart Pots and stepped up my watering schedule and that seems to have done it. THe S. Diesels are still a little sad, but they have new growth so I am remaining optimistic. The upside is my plants including the S.Diesels are only 13 days old and I literally have roots blowing out of my pots. The growth is crazy! I imagine at the rate they are going, I'll be flipping by weeks end. :)

I wouldn't worry too much about flushing the beneficials out, as I believe coco needs flushing often. But I would be very careful when moving the bags around and transplanting. Easy to do some serious damage to the roots.

Am curious too, with the ability to expand around the middle does the design of the bags create a compaction or folding (sagging) issue over time? How do you assure saturation when watering, or does the water not flow out of the sides? How long does it take to dry-out your medium? (do you water daily?) Are the bags sitting on a screen or a bed of drainage rocks? Does the root ball slip-out easily for transplant?

Not knocking the bags, just curious...
