    @SeasonsLater Yes, I did twice so far. It may have slowed it a bit but it didn’t completely stop the spread. Fortunately, the humidity here has broken so it’s slowed dramatically but I’m still wiping a bit off with wet paper towels every day.

    @CamZ Yeah… I just typed @ followed by the username. I didn’t get a list of users or anything so just hoped it would work lol

    No, not yet. I’m in the northeastern United States and it’s typically end of September or beginning of October for us. I expect to chop in the next 1-3 weeks. 🙂

    @mrgrowit Thanks, I meant immediately after the washing to try and dry the water droplets as soon as possible. I’ll be doing it in a tent in my basement with two clip on fans hitting the inside walls and the online fan exhausting 24/7. It’s usually in the upper 60’s and around 50-60% RH year round in my basement so I’m hoping for the best. Thanks again for the tips!

    When I bud wash, is it recommended to leave an oscillating fan directly on the washed flowers until they’re dry to the touch? I’m really paranoid about making the problem even worse by introducing mold…

    I hope he didn’t mean the Southern AG product because I’ve already used it twice lol

    Thank you! I’ll definitely be trying some of the suggestions. I’ve got a bottle of the Southern AG organic fungicide arriving tomorrow that CamZ suggested. Bringing them indoors into a dry, climate-controlled environment seems to have also helped to slow the spread. At this point, I feel like I’m running out the clock in a football game.

    Okay, thanks for the confirmation. I’ve actually brought them inside since they’re in pots and the central AC is keeping the humidity low enough inside (40-50%) that it seems to have slowed dramatically or stopped progressing altogether. I guess I may keep them in here for the foreseeable future since the humidity outside doesn’t look like it drops below 80% anytime soon. If I were to plant in-ground next season, what’s the best way to prevent it? Neem oil spraying throughout the season and adding silica?
