I used to think it was salts as well, and it may be. However, someone else provided a better explanation: It's actually mold. Not the scary kind, but it's growing on the outside. Develops more with excess water. You can use iso to get it off, but I do this between grows instead of while the plant is still inside. Either way, it seems to make the bags breathe quite a bit less. Those pots don't seem to drain right.

Hi there, As you’re using fabric pots, all it is, is salt build up from your nutrients. As long as plants are healthy and showing no signs of nutrient burn/overfeeding, you’ll be fine and nothin to worry about. They look fine to me so keep doing what you’re doing. I also use fabric pots. If you need to ask anything feel free to message me. Hope this helps.

Looks like salts... Better go down with nutrients... This is saying '' enough food for me thanks ''... As long as it's not looking like moisture.. It's ok

Any guess on how much longer until harvest? I'm aiming for 20% amber or more for the couch lock but I don't want to be waiting for trichomes that don't actually turn. Since this is an indica I'm sure I should see a transition from to amber it's just hard to tell if cloud or clear

Defoliate a flowering auto?Hello! I am contemplating defoliation for my GSC auto which is just starting its 3rd week of flower. My concern is that the humidity may be too high, and there may be too little air flow due to the plant's healthy size. What are yall's opinions on this? Too stressful? Thanks!

Now I’m familiar with using Rockwool cubes and air pruning roots in cubes but well I don’t know if it’s me being impatient but the roots don’t seem to be taking to the Rockwool cube. Now I’m thinking they have transplant shock from being put under 600w light or transplant to cube

Defoliation, is it worth it? It’s the start of week 5, my 3 plants are growing in a tight tent and the leaves are starting to cross between them. I’m worried that the smaller plants won’t get enough light but I’ve never defoliated before and I am nervous to try. any advice? :)

When should I begin the flushing process for my OG Glueberry Auto? Normally it would be starting 2 weeks prior to harvest. Is that still applicable to Auto strain? Do they need two weeks of flushing, or will one week suffice?

Defoliation for Autoflowering in Flowering stage Hi everyone! I'd like to defoliate my girl, but she turned into flowering mode just recently. Is it feasible to defoliate to open up more bud sites or better leave as it is considering that she's an autoflowering? She looks pretty healthy.

Pruning lowest nodes?Can I prune the very lowest nodes off of my autos at this stage? They aren't going to receive much light so I'm thinking it would be better to remove them so that all the energy goes to the upper sites. Any pearls of wisdom on this front?
