Bergman's Mold Control during flower?

Today I saw this on my NL auto, and I’m concerned it may be powdery mildew.

It’s been very humid and rainy here, so I’ve kind of been watching out for it. I used the Bergman’s Mold Control spray preventively during veg, but haven’t since things started flowering. The info on the product page is pretty vague, but it does say, “Mold Control stops the development of molds and fungi through its fast-acting ingredients, which include potassium bicarbonate and neem-oil.”
I’ve read that neem oil shouldn’t be used during flower, so I’ve been leery of it.
If that is powdery mildew on my plant, should I try the baking soda spray solution tactic, or something else?

@guitarngrowmn You can use 3% peroxide from the drug store and mix up to 50/50 with water.
Will kill it on contact.
At that rate tho you may have some minor browning of pistils on the buds.
Spray at the end of the day or first thing before lights on.
Safe to use right up to harvest.

Here’s what I use.

Also perfectly safe right up till harvest.
I’d suggest getting the test strips as well so you can check the strength of your solution. Keep the ph between 3.5 and 5.5 for longest shelf life.
That’s in :canada: doll hairs btw. :wink:

I used this product indoors, outside adds more environmental issues that are beyond anyone’s control. I highly recommend this product, and it worked better than expected. Worked so well, I still have a packet left. There were smaller options than a gallon when I purchased mine.

Thanks, I’ll check that out :+1:

Thanks, that one sounds good, I bookmarked it in case I need it. I’m going to try the peroxide spray first. Mine are outdoors and it’s been crazy rainy and humid all summer so far. Nice dry stretch coming up, so hopefully that helps.

As far as my original question goes, for those who are wondering about the Bergman’s Mold Control spray included in the Plant Protector kit, ILGM support promptly got back to me with this: :+1:

So that’s good to know for photo plants, but in my case here it’s on my NL autoflower which is well into flowering now, so I don’t want to spray that on the buds since it does have neem oil in it.
From the product page:

I think they should update the product page to include more info. When I searched around for specific info and posts re: Bergman’s Mold Control and the Plant Protector kit in general, there wasn’t much to be found. Mostly confusion and people asking how to use the products with no real useful info other than people recommending other products or their own remedies.

Unfortunately that is what that is. You’re not the second person that stated that.
