I have had that as well. It happens with any "live" potting soil that is moist. It is a good sign and does no harm. Go ahead and use the soil.

4x4 16 Plant Veg Time and Training
Hello guys, I am planning on flowering these 16 ladies in my 4x4, but I am unsure of how long to veg and what training to utilize for maximum yield. I was thinking 3-4 weeks? Or maybe longer? Is topping in such a tight space a good idea? If yes then at what time? Thanks!
