yes, I have used it and had good results...below is the ingredients I used

1 gallon of water
1 tablespoon of baking soda
1 tablespoon of vegetable oil
1 tablespoon of dishwashing liquid

Mix the ingredients together and add them to a spray bottle.

I remember the first Lucas formula was GH MaxiGrow (10-5-14) for veg then MaxiBloom (5-15-14) for flowering.

After a while, the Lucas formula said to only use the MaxiBloom from start to finish.

I don't know what experiments were conducted to come to this conclusion, but it seems to agree with the Dynagro CEO
I use Lucas from start to finish; every other watering in coco, but I do add 1/4 tsp epsom salts. Working great on my zombie kush, with a little bit of clawing so it does have enough N for sure. Leaves are not overly dark though and not a single spot on any of them. I'm in Florida and I've never had a mold or mildew issue either. You can have high humidity (60-70% RH), but you'd better have a lot of airflow.

I used everything but veg oil I will add that the next time my questions I have is since it work how often should I really use it and is this white stuff that's drying on the leaves a hazard I keep trying to get it all off its hard wondering if I could low-key leave it on for it to fight off future P.M

I would continue to spray it down until all the white PM is removed....then maybe once a week for prevention

Don't use the home baking soda if you can which is Sodium Bicarbonate use Potassium Bicarbonate and you should use some kind of wetting agent with the Potassium Bicarbonate. Potassium Bicarbonate is also labelled as natural PH UP>

Just watch the leaves but you should be able to spray once a week from the get go and up to two times per week if you have mildew. Just have to watch how your strain reacts to it.

im going to try the peroxide some time

ive use green cure .. it works but if you use it frequently itll burn your leaves...move your lights up and don't add anything else to it..no soap its already in it

baking soda works

copper not so much

serenade... idk didn't work for me

currently im using silica combined with azamax

if your silica is a 2% silica

mix in 1 gallon
30mls silica
30ml azamax

that yields
160ppm si
33ppm K

DO NOT ADJUST PH leave it as it is
seems to be working well I spray 1 x per week and didn't have any of my usual issues this past summer

No, I'd toss those bugs into some ice water and make hash.
