please tell me this isnt mold!!!!!!!!!!
can someone look at these pics please. on some of my leaves it appears to have small white circular patches on the leaves. ive seen these patches for some time now and nothing has changed. ive rubbed on the patches and it barely came off still being there. the plants are in about 30days of vegetation. im just worried cause im almost ready to throw it in the 12/12 cycle and i dont want my bud later to turn into mushy mold.

any other info you need ask me, i thought that more info might not be needed cause i just want to know if its mold or not and if it is going to be a problem.
please tell me this isnt mold!!!!!!!!!!
I'm no expert but it looks like the mold you get in damp conditions. It may not be deadly to the plants, but if it was me I'd remove the leaves as soon as I saw anything that resembled the sort of mold/dampness that I'd expect to see.
Mold usually has a "damp" smell about it, because in damp conditions we smell mold (and thus associate the smell of mold with dampness - i think :D), does it smell like that?
please tell me this isnt mold!!!!!!!!!!
there is no damp smell at all and i have a strong 8 inch inline fan running full blast and a passive intake. the only way to get rid of it is cutting the leaves? cause i think im going to have to cut a lot. oh thanks for the quick responce
please tell me this isnt mold!!!!!!!!!!
Powdery mildew. More pix would be great, But if u find patches i would say for sure thats what it is. Dont cut off the leaves dude! Get urself 3 in 1 defender, or organicide.
This sort of issue if it is in fact powdery mildew is not just a surface issue on the plant its also internal.
Oh one last thing if u go with the 3 in one defender use a wetting agent Earth juice makes one along with dozens others this will help alot. GL!

Looks like the beginnings of Powdery Mildew.

the above link contains non poisonous controls for powdery mildew.
I haven't ever had powdery mildew on cannas, but I have treated zuccinni plants effectively with full cream milk, lightly sprayed on the plants once a week.
please tell me this isnt mold!!!!!!!!!!

no idea, but dilluting is going to mean less damage in case it is too strong for the plant :D

milk? Thats just wrong. I dont even wanna imagine what milk on leaves is gonna smell like under lights. That artical i think it outdoor gardening related.I would not use milk dude.The 3 in 1 defender and organcide are both natural non toxic FYI.
Yes itll spread and only get worse. Oh and if u smoke powdery mildew bud u WILL GET SICK.

It's a shame about your plants, but there's a couple of lessons that should be learned from this.
First of all, just because someone posts a reply to your question doesn't necessarily mean that they know what they are talking about. There are a lot of trolls and just plain idiots posting total BS.
Secondly, learn to use the search function, or at least take the time to scroll through the problems section before taking action. Here's a very good thread, http://boards.cannabis.com/plant-pro...ry-mildew.html, that you could have found by merely scrolling half-way down the Plant Problems index page.
You originally posted your question at 10:20 pm west coast USA time. Three hours later you rushed into doing something foolish, apparently oblivious to the fact that most the growers in the US were asleep and couldn't answer your question. I guess doing some research was just too much effort for you. Well, now you see the consequences of impetuousness and laziness. Perhaps next time you will know to avoid both.
In case it hasn't occurred to you, you might consider washing the milk off your leaves. I've never had to deal with a problem like that before, but it seems like a logical first step.

Let's rub some more salt in his wounds, shall we? :thumbsup:
Go grab yourself a bottle of SMC leaf wash, which is coriander oil concentrate in horticultural oil. It treats and prevents PM and other fungus.
Also, an organic fungicide such as Serenade, which contains Bacillus bacteria, is another preventative step.
Your humidity is low to be seeing PM... but stranger things have happened. I don't know how you got it in such dry conditions. You might want to pay closer attention to the differences between night and day temps. You could be getting dewfall after lights out if the swing is more than about 15 degrees or so, even at that low daytime %RH.

ya thanks guys, I should have waited and not tried the home remedy and shoulda done a more intense search. I did it only because I thought it was natural and I had thestuff on hand, and it worked for some plant matter. But now I know it ain't for mj(haha). I think today I'm going to look for those products at my hydro store. I was just in a bad mood cuz I had to stay up till 5am cleaning this stuff off when I have school in the morning, and its not high school so I can't just skip. Anyways I caught it and washed it before it damaged a lot. Do you think I have to fllush since some of milk went on top of my soil?

Nope. Just a little milk on your soil is not a problem. Maybe if it is enough to attract pests, but I imagine it can't be THAT bad.

Stinky - If our mistakes have any value at all, it is in the lessons that we learn from them. I wasn't trying to rub salt in Cigarettes' wound, I was merely trying to explain to him where he went wrong - and not to criticize him but in the hope that it would help him, and anyone else who is unfamiliar with CanCom and happened to read the post, to avoid the same mistake in the future. Maybe I'm not the most diplomatic person in the world, and I certainly don't put much stock in political correctness, but the bottom line is that I was trying to be helpful. If my way of doing this is offensive, I guess I should just shut up.
