A couple of days ago I noticed white powder on the leaves of my 2 Bubba Kush plants, which are "due" to harvest in about 2 weeks, according to what I've read about the usual flowering time they require. I also have 2 Critical Kush plants that seem to have been infected after the Bubba plants got sick. Well, none of them really looks "sickly," but anyway I sprayed them immediately with a vinegar-water solution and then went to a local grow shop and got some Green Cure (potassium bicarbonate) which I just sprayed this morning.
I can still see white powder on some of the leaves, but I'm not sure if it is live fungus or dead. So I'm wondering, should I let the plants keep growing for another couple of weeks or harvest now? These buds are just for personal use (not selling or giving away) so will they still be smokeable after the PM attack?
A little history, if it matters, the first crop I grew here in Salinas, Calif., had bud rot, so I've been trying to keep the plants spaced out and humidity down ever since. Right now I just have four plants in a 3 foot by 2 foot space, with a fan blowing into the middle of them.
