where can i get this fan?
I don't think that fan exists. From the designer This is my fan concept for the #blowingwithcs instagram challenge on November 2017.
It may be an artistic design exercise.

I liked the concept too.:|

I think I have my powdery mildew issue under control. I drenched the plants and all surfaces last Wednesday and treated the one with problem again on Thursday. No new spots have showed up since.
try a small fan under the canopy.

I put a small fan under the canopy that's covering the dead spot. After this grow I've got to figure out something different. I was searching for a tower fan that could be mounted horizontally and put on on either end but no luck. This might require a custom solution.

Lg, watch your situation very carefully. Pm is a monster . You have infected your grow space . Even though it appears to be gone for now. There is a very good chance it might rear it’s ugly head again. What ever you can do to keep maintenance on top of it coming back might really be beneficial . I would hate to see what happened to me happen to you when I found PM on an isolated clone . I thought I had it nicked early but it destroyed my entire garden of 13 plants in 3 tents. Good luck, fingers crossed for you.

I was going to say about the same thing. Not trying to scare you, but I had the same experience...I kept thinking I had it beat (at first) only to have it re-appear after a week or 2. After 2 effected grows. I wound up trashing everything and starting fresh with Regalia. You did catch it early so I am hoping for the best for you!!

Looking back I think my biggest downfall was I had stopped running fans at lights out...I run them 24/7 now.

My biggest downfall was taking in a clone. It looked perfectly fine when I got it. Sorry to hear what happened to you happened to me too.

After the infected grow I disinfected everything and bombed the grow room , moved and stopped growing for a while and haven’t taken another clone since . I want a clone of the wedding cake I am smoking now but the guy at the dispensary said that the grower will not sell clones of it.

Well now you guys are scaring me lol. I guess all I can do is watch it and hope all my mitigation efforts work out. It would suck to lose an entire crop, but it wouldn't be the worst thing to happen this year. If I see it return my next plan is to pull the critical and try and save the other two if possible. I think I've cleared the environmental issues that allowed it to take hold.

Don’t be scared. It’s just something that happens and we learn and move on.

Probably the best thing you can do now along with fixing the environmental, is keeping your plants as strong & healthy as possible...and yes, as much as it sucked at the time, in the long run PM was a good thing for me. It forced me to come out of my comfort zone and make changes...Good changes!!

Do you use silica at all? (one of my changes)

This is the first pest problem I've experienced since I started growing. I was starting to think that only people who keep dirty houses have pest problems... not so much.

I have used silica in the past, in fact this is the first grow that I haven't used it. I found the plants much easier to bend and train without silica. Do you think it would be beneficial for me to add to the problem plant?

I'd use it on all 3 for some added protection. It does make the stems bigger but you are mostly done training now anyways...And you probably know, but if you squeeze and flatten the stems they bend better with silica.

It's ironic too that you used silica in the past and never had pm issues...I wonder if there could be a correlation. Very possible I think.

Silica, Regalia and Venerate are my 3 IPM items.
