So should I try the plastic bag with a rubber band over it first before cutting it off? Do I need to air the plastic bag?

You can and should cut a moldy branch. At least a couple of inches below where the mold appears to end as well. You can put a bag over it and secure it with a rubber band to first to stop mold spores from spreading.

What is this white fluff on my grow bag?
I've noticed some white fluff on the side of my grow bag. I'm guessing it's some fungus, should I be concerned at this stage? Day 23 in material bags. Thanks in advance 👌

Best way to control humidity?
I have a 4 inch inline fan blowing in air at the bottom, I have a 4 inch inline fan sucking air out the top and a 4 inch fan to circulate air inside and a large 300 foot air dehumidifier in the tent but my humidity is still 50%-60% constantly. What am I doing wrong?

Well I messed up a little I just pulled out my sticks I was using to label my seedlings and I find this white mold on them. I removed the sticks and dirt around should I use an anti fungal thing? I already have had gnats too but treated for them. This living soil is no joke eh

Organic growers: question about mold
First picture includes both molds. Second picture is the 'spider-web' mold. (Good mold, correct?) Third picture is the unknown mold. (Is this good or bad mold?) The red wrigglers living in the soil eat mold, but can/should they eat the second mold? Should it be removed?

Bud rot or normal?
Hi guys does this looks normal for this stage mid-late flower? Lower leaves are starting to die off which looks normal but should leaves between buds be doing the same? I hope its not the start of budrot? Have fans on buds RH is 60-70% in greenhouse+dehumidifer+heater struggling.

Bud rot! Should I harvest early?
I wasn’t finding any mold or mildew except a few leaves until today. Had about 4days of rain and now there’s a bit of rot in every large bud it seems like. About 10 days of sun coming up now, so should I just cut the rot out and wait 1-2 weeks? Or chop now and make hash?
