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.

I felt that I might get mold problems cause of high humidity, and saw an little yellow/brown under the top bud. Has just opened a bud and could see mold in one place on a bud under top bud. Should I chop plant now? Or should I just remove that one bud? :(

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. Thx

Still cant figure out what's going on with this plant. EC was over 2 for a couple of days but has since been taken care of, last reading was .83.
Is this a deficiency or some other kind of issue? Some have suggested a p or k deficiency, but I feed Jack's 20-10-20 peat-lite so I would be very surprised if it was a P problem, and the problem seems to be all over the leaves, but a lot of them start from the base of the leaf.

Good cover? Enough light passing? I place her at inside at night. High risk of budrot?
Is this a good cover? Quite bad weather this week, but i live in northern Europe so we have a mild sea climate. The summer is kinda over but this week is more rainy and cold then usually this time of the year. Does enough light pass the cover? I place her inside a barn at night.

7th week flowering mold problem. What can I do?
Hello everyone, in the last few weeks unfortunately I have eliminated some florets because a bit of mold has been created, I do not think it is real botrytis because if it was botrytis in 2-3 weeks it had to infect all the plants, it is a small percentage that I have eliminated .
