Algae is a sign of over watering. The algae wont harm your plants. As your plant grows it will shade out the soil and it will die and feed your plants.

That's the best part : you dont ! algae is not a bad sign, it helps keep moisture in and stabilise the temperature, it will naturally disappear or not, either way it naturally produces nitrogen for the plant. using humic acid breaks it down, otherwise just scoop it out with a spoon . Hope this helps ! 🚀

Turn it into the soil, it cant grow without light as it is a plant after all.
Also less water.
Good Luck!

This is going to sound weird but it works ... Sprinkle a little cinnamon on the algae and surrounding soil. Cinnamon is a natural repellent and will help stop the spread and prevent it from blooming and absorbing all the nutes...
Good luck!

Should I harvest in 2-3 weeks ?Hey, do you think my plants might be ready in two weeks ? They're autos in 7th week of their life. I know that 9 weeks is ok for most, but these should take approx. 11 weeks. Do you think one more week of feeding, then flush would be appropriate ? Trichomes are mostly milky white
