sulfur burners to deal with powdery mildew? it is really work?
and if it works how often and at what stage to use them?
Thanks
Hi @orian . Welcome to GN. I have dusted sulpher to the leaves directly, but never heard of this burners. Its does seem to work for preventative maintainence and also used with active infestations. Check the video below:
APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS:
For preventative use turn on the unit for 4-5 hours 2 times per week.
For active infestation turn on the unit 4-5 hours 4 times per week.
Can use up to 6-8 hours a night for severe infestations.
The cup must be cleaned, and filled half-way up with approx. 100g. of sulfur or a flame can result from the canister within.
Make sure to turn OFF exhaust fans and lights during operation.
Make sure plants are dry.
Usually, Burners are lit during the plants “night” (dark) cycle only.
Coverage Area - 1,000 Sq. Ft.

How much airflow in your grow area? If you have fresh air and a decent amount of exchange, then WPM almost never happens.
What is your RH?
I think the problem is once the PM spores are around, there is alot of cleaning to do as its in the system. So dont forget to not just fix the problem you having , but disinfect everything to including fans etc.
