Harmful mold/rot/fungus on degrading old plant matter?
Flex1
started grow question 4y ago
Mold/fungus? Harmful? Haven't seen something like this in my living soil and I suspect it could be from high moister or humidity level. Its only seen on old dead cover crop.

Not harmful at all, actually beneficial for your soil biology.

I wouldn't worry about this... not at all... if it's just the old, dead cover crop, it's naturally decomposing... Good luck!

Update: seems fungus related not mold. Not certain it's harmful rather just part of living soil.

Bleu (largest of the 3 plants) is ~14 days behind the other 2. Is such a variance in size & rate of maturation common when growing from seed? Does LST/HST amplify the differences between phenotypes? She's so tall I'm worried about light stress. Should I reduce the light schedule?

How do I reduce humidity
I have my grobox in the loft but it's got very high humidity 60-80. What's the best way to get it down to 40-50% for flowering? I already have a mini dehumidifier, 2x fans in the box. A dyson cool fan outside the box. Any tricks? Can't afford to spend mad money

Potential bud rot?
My critical cure has some of the smaller leaves near and in the buds which are starting to turn rusty brown. Is this a starting sign of bud rot? Should I cut them early? I do not see anything abnormal under the microscope or when separating the large buds by hand. Thanks!

Pollen sacks or powdery mildew?
I noticed what I thought was powdery mildew on a leaf, then noticed funny looking things right next to the powder. I think these are pollen sacks, and if they are I want to know if anything is recoverable, or if I need to scrap the whole plant/grow. "Second Grow" on my profile

Mold on coco surface after top dressing
HELP! My plants are in week 4 of flower and I gave them an organic top dressing about 4 days ago. The entire top of the coco is now covered in white/grey mold! I tried hydrogen peroxide yesterday but it just grew back stronger overnight. Will this spread to the buds???

Is it mold?! Help!
Is it mold? These little white hairs in the ground? Soil: BioBizz Light Mix If so, how to eliminate it? Mold has already appeared on top of the soil before. Then I removed it and I've poured fresh soil and cinamon.

My plants are growing tall and fast. If I want to restrict their vertical growth at some point should top them? Is there a time when it is too late to top them and if I do top them will they just become bushy? I did not do this early on, obviously.

white powdery mildew
I think my plant has white powdery mildew, we tried to remove it with a wet cloth and spray with Neem oil but it keeps coming back near the buds and pistils should I cut them or there are other options? We moved the plant to a tent this week with two fans to have airflow.
