Hello! I am a huge fan of URB and came across your diary. I believe the white spots you are seeing on the fabric pots are nothing more than leeched salts from the nutrients and not mold. I get them on my fabric pots as well. Over time, the buildup can cause the fabric to get clogged and the aeration is not as good due to the restricted air flow. I usually replace the pots after several uses since the buildup can get extensive. You can spend the time to soak or wash the pots, but in my experience, it is just easier to buy new fabric pots when the residue becomes a problem. I would also recommend putting something under the fabric pots to help allow the bottom to drain better. I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions!

Even my fabric pots show these signs, in my case its always calcium out of my tap water as i don´t use salts while growing organic.
So dont worry, shouldn´t be a problem at all.

Fungus or mold will be slimy, salt can be easily wiped with a towel. It's salts left over.

Hi @JackFrost17! These are the nutes leftovers, or so called "salt buildup". Nothing to worry about. They will disappear with a good wash after your harvest. Happy growing!

yeah it's probably salt buildup from fertilizer or calcium from water, saturating the fabric then drying out will make it show up over time. It happens, but normally wouldn't see it when using a conventional pot. It you want just wipe it off with a wet rag. But u don't have to you can leave it to.

ScrOG tucking: expose lower smaller bud sites by tucking/compacting main cola branches?For a better yield, should I aggressively (but gently) bend main leading branches and tuck all shading fans to expose young 'undergrowth' branches (circled) and bud sites to light, or, inversely, untuck fans and straighten leading branches to give more light energy to them?

Defoliation for better ventilation?Should I defoliate/prune to ensure better ventilation? I am going to flip the plant soon. It is quite bushy with big leaves and sometimes it is difficult to water it as there are a lot of leaves down there.
And when is it better to put the net? Before of after the flip?

Some guidance for ScrOG please@22cm & preflowering for about 4-5 days. Haven't noticed any stretching (~2-3cm)
When do I start with the ScrOG and at what height should one set the net ?
Also curious about defoliation: Right now, I keep tucking the fan leaves under the smaller ones.

Why dont my plants grow towards the middle/light and instead concentrate near the walls?Looks like my plants are growing towards the wall and not towards the middle where the light should be the best.
Why do the plants behave like that and what should I do?
Raise the net, rotate some of the plants, then redo the net?
Remove the net completely?
leave it as it is?

Smaller stems under the net during Flowering (Defoliation and ScrOG)I put a ScrOG net and now I am wondering if I should delete everything under the net or leave also the smaller leaves and stems for the flowering. You can see in my diary how the plants are. I'm afraid that leaving also smaller stems under the net would decrease my harvest
