Have you noticed any moths in your tent? They will secrete a substance on the leaves and then come back later to eat that spot...
mixed in 3 parts...I part milk, 2 parts water, (in a gallon jug) and use a spray bottle, it works 
Best bet is to have exhaust fans going 24/7...also to have an oscillating fan on the floor and the top of your tent to keep air moving...as long as air is moving, there's a better chance of mold spores not attaching themselves to your leaves...
Ever tried Milk? Yep milk

I have 2 fans on the canopy, and 2 on the floor (both at opposite ends) of my 4 x 8 and 1 each in my 4 x 4 and veg closet...
Yeah, I'm mister overkill when it comes to preventative measures

They have 12 inch oscillating fans at Wally World for 15 bucks
fits perfect on the floor without taking up too much room, and you can point it at the floor, so you don't disturb lower branches as much as a box fan...been there, done that - Thread starter

they're out of stock where i am currently. just checked online. if anything ill just use the box fan on its lowest speed for a temporary fix. i have afew sitting around so.They have 12 inch oscillating fans at Wally World for 15 bucks
Oh, they work. They just disturb the lower branches a little, that's why I started lolly-popping and scroging...no lower branches

Watch how much you defoliate in flower
too much can cause stress and may hermie on you, or cause your yield to be small...I usually do about 20 leaves per plant each time I water/feed, but only after about 3 to 4 weeks, never before that

Yes i have used milk. Which apparently need to be activated by the sun/lights.
And it makes a heck of a mess of the plants with its residue. And. No. It does not eliminate p.m. controls. Perhaps
Apple cider vinegar. Spit. Urine. Let me think what else i tried
Hurs me brain
Ask any local grow store. P.m. is an extremely common problem

I have done some reading on the issue lately and I can tell you I had Pm and it was being caused by my insect infestation of root aphids. Many fungal issues are insect related and you may not even know you have them. If the insects lower your plants defenses then mildew and other nightmares can occur and will not go away until you kill all insects or shut down and start over the key to successful cannabis farming is a very clean grow area . No house plants no pet traffic nothing other wise they will find there way into your perpetual garden and end it in its tracks. This is why I prefer to grow from seed so no hidden hitchhikers can stay around for more than one run.
