What to do with a moldy bottom?

Cremostarted grow question 5y ago

Hi guys.2-3 weeks ago I squeezed one of my plants at the bottom too heavily and it started to dry out at the outer layers.A week ago I poured some fresh water with nuts on the "wound".This week it recovered very well but the dried out bottom got some mold I believe.What do I do?

Pull away the pebbles from the area. Clean the area with a mix of baking soda and hydrogen peroxide. 1 cup of water with 1/4 teaspoon of baking soda and 1/4 teaspoon of hydrogen peroxide 3%. Wipe are clean first, then dip a Q tip in the solution and wipe the area. Throw away the Q tip and repeat with a clean one. Clean area every 12 hrs and see if that helps.

Thx a lot guys, I appreciate your suggestions. I'll try out what @DoctorGreenThumb suggests BUT I already cut a thin slice off with all the mold but will treat it today the way you described. It's the only plant that got it. I'm happy for this kind of advice, I was rather expecting a "dump that bitch" advice so it's all cool :)

Try to wipe it off and burying on the substrate would be my advice. Are they all like it or just this one?

maybe a light H2O2 spray ? i can't suggest safest dose, but google can fil in that portion. People use it in reservoirs, so if diluted will be safe for this application if careful too.

How much taller is she going to get? Every time I try to LST I end up supercropping or topping and I don't want to do that but I am running up against a space maximum.

The Red Mandarine have leaned too much respect to each other. I think it was due to excess light, to use a 600w led spotlight from the beginning. Next time I will use fluorescents or a led of 125w that I have

What's your opinion on pruning off the 5th node and the top 4 out of 12 inches of growth? I have 2 plants growing too fast and I believe this would remedy it. I dont want to hurt them, but I dont need a super uneven canopy. Pruning just the top hasn't slowed it down enough

Height issue. Small tent. LED as high as it will get and the tops of my newly flowering efforts are a mere 3 inches from the grow light. A few fronds have burned a little. My ScrOG is nearly as high as it’s going to go. Is there a way to decrease height. Stakes in soil ?

Two questions really; 1. I caught a couple of small flys on a fly strip. One was tiny and white. How worried should I be? Should I try to treat her with something? 2. The taller plant is like 2 ft tall and I am worried she will outgrow the space, is supercrop the only solution???

My plants are growing tall and fast. If I want to restrict their vertical growth at some point should top them? Is there a time when it is too late to top them and if I do top them will they just become bushy? I did not do this early on, obviously.

I feel that I kept my plant vegging for too long. It seems a lot taller than it should be and now I am not sure whether I should remove fan leaves or top the plants again to halt their upward growth. OR should I do nothing because they will stop growing upwards soon anyways?
