White spots - any idea?

These white spots has showed up a couple of times. I wiped them off but a week or so llater they showed back up again.

Likely powdery mildew. A dilute peroxide spray will remove it immediately.

It helps to maintain good airflow around the plant to prevent it going forward.

Ill sure try the mix as you suggested.

On the air flow, they are sitting outside if this makes any difference.

Thanks a million for the suggestion.

If you are experiencing mold at this stage you might want to consider having a fan on the plant when it’s not raining. Airflow can make a big difference in preventing mold development.

Run an extension cord if you have to, keeping safety in mind if it is wet out.

Shoot yesh, i can fan it no problem.

What if I transition to a tent? Would this be suggested? So i can control the climate?

If so, should i leave this girl out of the bunch that goes in the tent?

An indoor tent is ideal for mitigating mold where you can control RH and airflow. Humidity levels should be < 50% is flowering when mold can be a serious problem. Bud rot will ruin your harvest.

We see a lot of mold problems this time of year with outdoor growers.

If you move it inside, be mindful of pests that can come with it.

Should be 1 part H2O2 and 4 parts water, distilled water if you can, for the peroxide spray ratio. Hope that helps.
