It's a form of mold from over watering. Scrape it off and let your medium dry up more before watering.

Is my camera ok for judging trichomes?/these milky?
Getting anxious about harvest time. Am I good with camera zoom, or loop is essential? I'm at day 69, don't think I see any amber, but almost all my hairs are orange. Any info on judging ripeness would be appreciated.

Why tho?????
I’m new tho this site, but have been growing along time. Why do 80-90% of growers on here grow autos? Is because of contests on here? I don’t have a lot of auto experience a couple times I planted a freebie seed that came with a order. Wasn’t impressed.pic of seed collection

Two weeks left?
We’re just past six weeks (day 43) and we noticed some amber on some of the trichomes. We’re expecting to chop two weeks from today. Is that too long given how much amber is showing here?

Интересно узнать. То как я поиздевался над малышкой и затянул вегу, повлияет на качество и колличество исходного поодукта. похоже получился фотопериодный экземпляр вопреки моим предположениям. Родителями были два авто и папа фотопериодный АК-47

Growing Pink Oyster Mushrooms in Grow Tent - Pros/Cons?
Has anyone grown Pink Oyster Mushrooms in their grow tent? Pros? Cons? Pitfalls? Advantages? I'm thinking about growing these in a 5gal bucket in my tent. They like higher temps and humidity. I'm hoping for a yummy harvest but also hoping it will provide a CO2 boost. Thoughts? TY

Testing Cannabinoid Content
I've seen some growers report that they "sent a sample to the lab for testing" and was wondering if anyone had further insight or information about which companies do that and the process involved. I've tried to poke around myself to no avail.

Trichomes evaluation
Hello, in the last page of my diary (20), I uploaded some photos of Trichomes that I took with microscope. I believe that they are not ready for my usage (insomnia is my condition) and that I should wait until they are some milky and some amber. Can someone confirm my intuition?
