Bad mold or normal mycelium on soil? Worried.
SirSalamistarted grow question 2 years ago
Spotted white fuzz in my soil mix after balancing ph and adding nutes to the medium. Temps 72-81F, 40-45 humidity. Fan has mostly been pointed indirectly at side of pot/plant, rather than above. Should I be acting on this now? If so, what might be the best course of action? Thx!

It looks normal to me. You should be running a wet to dry cycle in soil. You may be watering too soon. If you continue it may lead to root rot. Just let it get dry not overly though.

Just break it up with a stick if it worries you, but it is just organic matter decaying and harmless to your plant.

Thanks for the quick response Roberts. I'm hopeful you're right.
Just to clarify for you or others that might be reading, the soil was quite dry the day before yesterday, before its 1st big round of feeding/ph balancing. I've heard *some* fungus growth can be a sign that the soil's in good health? 🤷♂️

Can I change my autoflowers light cycle withou reducing their yield significantly?I am having humidity/mold problems and was thinking of changing the cycle so the grow goes off at noon ( currently it goes off at 1am and its winter and gets real cold with 88% humidity).
Even if I stress them, it would be better to not have mold than reducing the yield, right?Other. Mold

Autoflowers with high humidity during night and rot, any solutions for high rh?Hello everyone, today I woke with a plant rot on some parts, that due to the high humidity it got during the night, 88% and 18 celsius.
What are the cheap and effective ways you do to prevent rot?
I was thinking of switching from 18/6 to 24/0 but I don´t want to stress them.

White hairs on seedHello growers!
I started germinating my White Widow seeds 3 days ago and there is some kind of white hairs growing from it but the seed is not cracked and there is no root yet.

Nutrient Lockout or Nitrogen deficiency (i.e need more nutes) or Fungus (see stems)My leaves are yellow but some are turning green. Do they need more nutrients or lockout? I have not gone above 1EC but have seen both strains handling 1.5EC+ in other diaries. All three plants are drinking the water in trays.

Mycelium or Fungus - Too much Part 2I am seeing a ton of mycelium on all of my autopots. Because I have a bottom feed system, it is hard to keep my top medium wet without getting mold. Is this going to effect my end result if I do not do anything about this? Should I leave it alone or put sand on it?
Thanks all

White mold?I am 5 weeks from seed, checking on the girls this morning I noticed what appears to be white mold forming on the starter plugs. I am using what I guess to be considered DWC to grow (a 3 gal reservoir). The roots appear to be good, strong and healthy. WHAT can I do too save them

mold instead of seedlingsTrying to germinate our seeds right into the soil, planted 72hrs ago. Covered with mason jars and now have white mold starting to grow on soil. The temp has stayed around 22 and the humidity around 65%. Should I remove the seeds and go to paper towel method instead?

Bad soil can i change the soil halfway? 20lt pot 5th Week stunned grow for 2-3weeks. Not gonna give up on her might aswell kill her trying?Is it a bad idea to repot her with new soil, as one of my regulares had to be repot. I tryed to remove old soil, and gave her new soil, and she improved even more than this one who only got the ph fixed with vinegar. But the regular was on a 1lt pot. Thank you!
