Urgent help - stalks become dark and die..

[GUBI]

Hi all,

A perfectly healthy plant , deep flowering stage, suddenly one stem suddenly dies , than another , all connected to the same stalk that is turning black gradually, the black part is kind of soft, rot like feeling
What is going on?

Definitely a fungal infection. Possibly Fusarium. Have you been over watering? what is the soil?

I think the plants a goner to tell the truth But is possible she will limp through with a few stems. Cut off all infected areas bag and burn. Use H2O2 to sterilize pruners, hand and open cuts. Some have tried an H2O2 drench. IDK the rate they are using though. Fungal spores are really hard to kill. Fusarium spore can stay in the soil for years waiting for the right condition. If you drench try to keep the soil on the dry side afterwards.

I just read up on fusarium; starts in the roots and them comes up the stem from the dirt line with a reddish look. That looks black and more like botrytis, either way it is fucked.
