Powdery Mildew?

Post by Tom1974 »

Pic to be uploaded in the morning but a fair few of my big leaves have little white specs/dots on them

Only noticed today by chance but don’t think it’s been going on too long

Humidity is 55-60%

Temps never lower or higher than 23-27 degrees

Hoping it’s nothing serious but if it is, what can I do to help?

Cheers gang

Would have to see a photo but 60% of the time its just salts from a foliar or a stray splash when watering. Best thing is to get yourself a picket microscope/jewelers eye.

So here’s the pictures guys and quite bad

Underside of the leaves are fantastic it’s just the fronts And weirdly enough more the bottom leaves not so much the upper ones

Humidity last few days has been 65% and even with a dehumidifier in there I can’t get it down

Any help or advice would be much appreciated

Devastated if so mate, I was flying with this first run

As soon as the shops are open I will go and grab a magnifier

Anything that would stand out to confirm it once I get one buddy?
