stonedkoala
started grow question 4y ago
I know powdery mildew can look like tiny white hairs. I'm thinking it's mildew but can someone with more experience let me know?

Those spiky things are leaf "hairs", otherwise known as "non-glandular trichomes" and are nothing to worry about, they are compltely normal for cannabis. Stay off those gum leaves!

White spots on lower branches
So this last week a few lower branches developed white spots that seem to cause deformation. Is this some kind of mold and do I need to do something about it? I’m worried it will stress if I let it be. Thanks in advance!

Mold between the pots and on the soil's surface, should I be worried ?
So my pots are very close to one another so they can't breathe enough but my space is quite limited and in veg maybe there was not enough extraction. Now that they are in the flowering room they have a little more space but still too cramped. It's just one or 2 pots out of six

Mouldy, webbed buds
The humidity was too high when I went away and now my buds are mouldy. Obviously I’m heart broken (mainly at my own stupidity because I should know better!) and I wondered if there was anything I can do to recover some of the crop. Can I wash? spray? Dry out…basically anything?!?

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?

Start of rot?
Start of bud rot maybe? Only brown ish spot on the entire plant. Looks like it's just on the one vein coming from the bud. All other spots are green.

High humidity
I hit 70% of humidity this night in my growroom when I usually have 60% tops at night and a good dehumidifier is quite expensive. Any quick tips to decrease HR without one ? And if I can't, how bad is 60% average HR ?

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 👌

Mould on seedling
This seed was late to spawn. Now it finally opened, even if it's quite short on the soil. I can see a fluff of mould just below the cotyledons. What should I do? Can I save it or do I risk contaminating the rest of the plants in the growbox?

Can you spray water on bananas while they're still on flowers (around weeks 5/6/7) ?
had a few plants herm around week 6 of flower. can i spray bananas with water FIRST (to kill pollen) then remove with tweezers? Worried about active pollen spilling. I've heard pull with tweezers and put in a cup of water. Don't want mold/mildew/etc. though!
