@Catova 😕 yeh mate that is Mold eeewwww to save those buds you will need to act fast #remove any affected material #transfer the unaffected bud to a cardboard box or even a paper bag/s # put it somewhere dry and airy preferably out of the light # let it dry properly 👉DO NOT SMOKE MOLDY WEED 👈

Taking those down is like spreading more ... Fungus and spores ... You need air circulation, not fan on them, but constant air change in dry room ... Try to buy peroxide and wash scissors every time and nicely trim those fan leaves, anyway they were protection for dry trimmed bud... All the Best !!!

Schimmel ist ein Pilz und ja Dein Material ist befallen. Niemals im Badezimmer trocknen, da die Keim und Sporenbelastung in diesem Raum sehr hoch ist, selbst wenn penibel gesäubert. Die einzige Rettung für Deine Blüten, wäre eine Wasserhärtung. Hierzu gibst Du Deine Blüten in destilliertes Wasser, besser Osmosewasser. Mehrmals täglich das Wasser wechseln und nach 7 - 14 Tagen bist Du das Problem los. Wassergehärtetes Weed ist ein eigenes Kaliber, also ist nicht alles verloren. Viel Glück!

I keep loosing leaves to some sort of nasty necrosis. It affects leaves at all levels, small and big randomly. I had to remove a lot of dying foliage At first it looks like a asymmetrical spot of leaf starting to thin out to lighter color then tissue dries and turn black. I have high runoff EC3.3 and I blame Easy boost pellets because I only add rootjuice 1ml/L and sugar royal 0.5ml/L to my water. What is it and how I fix it?

Black spots spreading // Need your help!Anyone got a clue what this dark spots could be? It started in a corner of the tent with 1 plant a few weeks ago and now it has spread to another. I suspect pH issues and a nutrient lockout bc of that. Not sure if its the same issue though..Could be an infection as well...
