Mould and salt! Both! Al the hype about fabric pots,I don’t get it ?humidity is the result,I do not use them any more because of mould and the rootprunning story!! You pay a lot to dehumidify. Plastic pots and your problem is gone..
Happy Growing!

Looks like dried solutes to me... discoloration is potentially a microbe of some sort, but can't be certain from picture.

Combo of salt and algae. Totally normal. I try to scrub it off the best I can between grows.

Temps Humidty Optimization, Worried about mid/late flowerHello guys
My grow tents have high humidity. A fan is venting into attic.
There is a vacuum in the room so the air is circulating+ dehumidifer outside tent
Maybe too many plants?
Night~19°
Day~25°
55-62%
RH too high for flower?
Want to prevent budrot. Temps OK?
Any ideas?
Thanks!4y ago

Humidity won't go down because of clay pebbles ?Though my extractor is at high speed, I have a hard time with controlling humidity, I hardly go under 68%, specially during the night. Probably it's the clay pebbles since the pots don't have a lid. I placed the temp/humidity probe near the tallest leaves. what do you think ?4y ago

Fungi in floweringFound fungus on a girl's leaf. my first actions were to carefully remove the leaves that were contaminated and the excess leaves to improve ventilation. I also washed the Grown with disinfectant. What should I do next? It's 4 weeks to harvest, should I anticipate it to avoidWeek 10

Bad mold or normal mycelium on soil? Worried.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!Week 4

Organic growers: question about moldFirst picture includes both molds.
Second picture is the 'spider-web' mold. (Good mold, correct?)
Third picture is the unknown mold. (Is this good or bad mold?)
The red wrigglers living in the soil eat mold, but can/should they eat the second mold? Should it be removed?Week 21

Help, what are those weird yellow spots in late veg?Hello everybody, I've checked in on my plant after I was away from home for 2 day. Now I come back to see these ugly yellow spots? During day 23°C / 55% humid. During night 18°C / 50% humid.
Checked the whole bud, but no insects. My other ideas are mold or stress from the light?Leaves. Color - Yellow
