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.

How do I reduce humidityI 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 moneyWeek 5
