Biggy2k20started grow question 5 years ago
Hi guys, I appreciate it you could really help. I have started flushing my plant and because of the small grow space over night my buds have developed a fungus!!! It is small cloudy like cotton wool, hard to see on images. What can I do!? Strain: RQS fat banana

cut off impacted areas.. see if oyu can salvage... may want to dry and cure differently -- not in normal spots.. smaller amounts in smaller boxes or jars etc to reduce risk and avoid contaminating your normal gear.
you can spray it with an anti-funal spray, but it'll certainly be smoked or eaten at thsi point if sprayed on the plant, so even if it sas "organic" that doesn't mean it is safe for that use. e.g. neem oil is not safe to spray on your plant this late.
make sure it's not just some cobweb that somehow got caught. obviously, a web doesn't spread so you may have elimiinated that possibility.

Never wear clothes from outside in or around ur grow. I shower everytime before I enter a grow space. Little bugs love to hitch a ride. They can easily make their way to ur plants via u. Never bring a plant outside than back in... ur just asking for travelers seeking refuge in your garden. Take appropriate precautions is ur best defense. Dealing with and eradicating a infestation is much harder than stopping one from starting in the first place.

Also I'd treat the plants u separated this on from as spider mites will travel from plant to plant. Also the grow area will need a complete top to bottom treatment than cleaning and sterilizing. You dont want a repeat occurrence.

The little black dots are just smaller spider mites... u found em eh! New it. Look into water cure/bud washing at harvest. That should get rid of the bulk majority of ur little critters... b4 u dry.

I thinks it's spidermites too. Wipe the affected areas of with some soapy water. Wash the whole plant well. Scoop up the top layer of soil and dispose. Add some fresh dry soil. To help get rid of eggs in your soil you will need to add neem oil and incesticidal soap to your watering twice a week for around two weeks. Then back to normal....you can still add nutes.

Judt had a further look with a jewellers glass x 60 and there are mini spiders and also black dots which are moving (possibly fungus gnats also). Anything I can do now or shall I just wait until harvest, trim and wash thoroughly? Thanks everyone

If it's not spider mite webbing, than it's the white wispy fluff that comes right before a botrytis outbreak... keep ur fingers crossed for mites.

Well I see large signs of spider mite infestation. In your extremely white spotty leaves. I also see spider mites throughout ur pics. Are u sure its s fungus and not the webs from spider mites? Either way personally I wouldn't consume it... but that's me fam. I'd definitely be looking into water curing technique. Give those buds a good wash before even considering if u want to consume. Happy growing and stay lit fam.

It's on most bud sites and I've taken it away from the others... so does that mean I would have to harvest the whole plant now? 2 weeks premature.

How close do these look to ready? Video in diaryHow early did I cut these? I know they are at least on the early side of harvest ready if not a little bit before ready, but the top of the colas definitely have a good bit of amber trichomes and I was dealing with a heat issue effecting the top buds so I cut a few to test.5 years ago
