It's actually really simple I mean just think about it if you take milk and you put it outside at room temperature it turns into yogurt. Yogurt is full of living probiotics, mainly lactobacilli. One of those is called lactobacilli Caseii and plantarum. Those are both known as extremely strong inhibitors of pathogenic fungus, such as powdery mildew. They also are powerful decomposers of organic matter. They keep things clean.

In my experience, the best results with PM is to do many repeat applications, like once a day for 7 days, and then every other day after that. This interrupts the reproductive cycle by washing away the spore strans as they develop but before the spores break off. Nothing works if you don't keep at it diligently.

@@MattyDemello Where are you from? That's interesting - we still have it labeled that way here. You don't have to use skim - 1%, 2% milk or even whole milk will work fine but the fat will make it smell a little bit more after a few days in the sun. So I would buy the lowest fat version you can find - from what I have read they have tested it and found the milk fat component of milk was not what worked against PM. I have never seen milk actually stop powdery mildew once it was established. I have had luck with using it as a preventative and I have seen it work when the powdery mildew was just barely starting. After you use milk you need to CLEAN YOUR SPRAYER better than you ever have before or it smells horrible and has mold growth in it. You'll see little spots of mold down the tubing etc. Have you tried potassium bicarbonate? This has probably been the most effective at truly eliminating PM on a plants all over the yard. I have never found it locally though - had to buy the powder off of Amazon.com. What kind of plants are you trying to stop the PM on? Toward the end of our growing year (more like late Sept here) I have never successfully completely eliminated PM off of squash plants. It seems like it gets to a certain age and time of year and it just succumbs to it. I even used chemical fungicide one year and that didn't kill it either I did postpone it/reduce it a little but it was a lot of effort for the limited reduction and I had to spray it very often - maybe because of heavy dew that we start getting in September.

I smoked reefer long before I ever grew it, but in 9 Summers, I've seen some mold, some powdery mildew (thankfully not a lot), but after seeing these things, I realize that in my high school days and after, I HAD to have smoked both of those things from time to time .I know that I saw ''mud'' on buds of yesteryear that I bought on the street, so to speak. this is why I'm glad(never thought I'd say it) that the Federal G'umint is going to (apparently) be more involved w/ quality control of Cannabis .the state level laws will eventually lead to the Feds finally seeing that they have to get behind weed, and re-consider Hemp, which was very good to our early Republic. anyway, since I now have essentially delved into politics, I'd like to remind folks here (some here already agree) that there is a candidate who wants to stop the ''drug war'' and unlike the 2 clowns....excuse me, candidates, that we choose from every 4 years, even addresses it. Libertarian Jo Jorgensen is the (L) candidate in 2020 .maybe one day we can end battering rams taking doors off hinges, cops and citizens getting shot, all because people like stimulants. always have, always will.in any liquor store, whiskey ,beer and wine are poisons we can choose from freely, which is what Libertarianism is all about.

Do you find the milk spray on pot helps get rid of mildew?

@@scottsandquist5381 I gave up growing for a while, and I never tried it, but it sounds like enough to confuse me, as it resembles mildew. I wish you nothing but the best w/ it, though. have a good harvest. I'm still enjoying my AK-47 nearly a year later.

I bought a pack of gas station cigs once and every cig smelled like Cat Piss.

@@user-mw9jf4wc9j That's happened to me as well, man. When I opened the pack the odor of cat piss alone was powerful enough for me to throw the whole pack in the trash..glad I didn't light one up! Man, I'd hate to know what cat piss actually tasted like! 🤮

Milk works much better when the leaves get direct sunlight...It can be problematic if the leaves stay wet with the milk, especially with a higher ratio to water than ~ 5:1 water to milk mixture....

Interesting, I came home from camping and the mildew was everywhere. I will have to try that. We have milk goes bad about once a month.
