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

Extremely slow vegetative autoflower grow. I'm growing Glue Auto from FastBuds and Dark Devil from Sweet Seeds. What is wrong with my environment?
I'm currently watering about every 3-4 days, one time just water the other nutes from CANNA at 1/4 strength, temps between 20-27 and humidity about 60%. Glue Auto is about 30 days, Dark Devil is about 1 week. Oscillating fan is always on, extraction fan only turns on when >60%

10/12 light Schedule
hey growers! I switched 10 days ago to 10 hours light Schedule so they finish faster but I feel it did the opposite. Can I switch back to 12 hours or is it late now?

HELP IDENTIFY THIS SECONDARY PLANT!
What's the second little plant growing in Charlie's pot in my Sour Diesel Auto grow? Round leaves and running it through the free apps have proven useless. Maybe a Pilea plant? Seed was in the dollar store soil I started the seeds in.

Week counts
Would anyone else like to see growdiaries start showing instead of 1 week, 2 weeks, 3 weeks, and so on, show as 1st week, 2nd week, 3rd week and so on. The way it looks now, as you enter the 2nd or 3rd week it seems like that week is already done.

Is my autoflowering plant a hermaphrodite?
Hi guys, first time grower here and I'm a bit concerned about one of my two plants. One has entered preflower 2 days short of week 4, but my second plant hasn't shown any signs yet. Noticed these pods near the main stem, is this the sign of a hermaphrodite?

Did we start everything okay?
I'm OCD #af and worry about EVERYTHING. Is there anything we can be doing better? Light distance, germination tactics, water amounts with coco? Did we use too big of a cloth pot (I've been told 7-gallon is good, and I feel that what we have in a 10-gallon pot).

First time: Plants ready to flip? Should I do some defoliation first?
These plants have been topped/LSTd. They're 5 weeks old in their final 7L pots. I'm thinking they're about ready to flip in the coming week, but I'm open to opinions on if I should wait more. Also, defoliation before flower: Skip it? Do it? If yes, then how much and where from?

Eternity Grow Cup 2025 Harvest Celebration: Has science finally caught up to homegrowers' noses/taste buds? Can we put the terpene wheel to rest?
Flavorants are non-terpene (non isoprene based) molecules which contribute to smell or taste. This includes esters amongst other alcohols, canna-sulfur compounds, and other hydrocarbon molecules including at times lipids. This supposedly solves the skunk question too. Thoughts?
