The glossy film that builds up acts as a prophylactic against a wide variety of molds, diseases, and pests.
Serenade is B. subtilis, a beneficial bacteria- both Serenade and Neem can be used in organic gardening and are COMPLETELY non-toxic to humans. Word.
Hi Stinky, thank you for your advice! I have some neem oil here and would like to use it until the Serenade arrives. Would that create a reaction when the Serenade gets used? I might not even need the Serenade by the time it gets here. I will be glad to have the Serenade for future uses, and/or to avoid the prob in the future.
Oh yeah, when I last used the neem it said to mix with water and soap, is that the best way to do it? I just don't like the soap idea. Thanks again, :stoned: word.
Weedywildwoman Reviewed by Weedywildwoman on . powdery mildew on bubba/master kush plants Hi All, I have read up on my problem and have determined it to be powdery mold. At first I thought I had gotten dust on the plant, but now that it is on newer leaves I had to rule that out. So...I clipped off the most affected leaves this morning and increased ventilation in my vegging room. I had the fan going off with the lights as I have them on 20/4, it will stay on now. I made the area larger to avoid crowding. I only have a white widow and a Grandaddy purple in there with Rating: 5
