Mold on stored coco/worm castings
rando_herberstarted grow question 4y ago
Hey all,
I mixed together 40L of Coco and 10L of worm castings, and left it sitting with a lid. Sure enough, it has some mold growing on the top. Can I still use this medium or should I just throw it out? (Not broke, but cheap!)
Thanks

This is exactly what should want. Beneficial fungi and bacteria allow for organic nutrient exchange.

Depends on what kind of mold it is...I'm not toi familiar with coco but I grow in living /super soil, so some mold is beneficial and bound to happen when you add certain products. My mold appeared when I added malted barley but after a quick Google it appears to be good mold beneficial to the soil microbes and plants seem healthy. Check out my current grow...

Mold on soil ?On day 36 I discovered some strange white stuff on top of the soil in only one pot. Looks like mold and the plant seems not to be infected. Two days ago I gave both of the BioTabs Bactrex and Molasses as scheduled. Does anyone had this issue before ?

Still cant figure out what's going on with this plant. EC was over 2 for a couple of days but has since been taken care of, last reading was .83.Is this a deficiency or some other kind of issue?
Some have suggested a p or k deficiency, but I feed Jack's 20-10-20 peat-lite so I would be very surprised if it was a P problem, and the problem seems to be all over the leaves, but a lot of them start from the base of the leaf.

Bugs? Funghi? Help me!There are some white spots at the base of my stem, and I noticed that lady #1 haves some red/purple stems. 5min into Google and I'm already panicking here. Things that I read that made me worry: Scales, Fusarium, root rot and other fungi life. Should I continue freaking out? 😶

Mold and Harvest timeHey bros, take a look at the last Day 102 pics, mold... what do you think? Does not smell like it, comes from outside. Looks like a bunch of white pistils together. I've cut one of to examine further with the mic. I will update the pics later. Oh, and also, one more week to go?
