    56 starter pots grew grey mold overnight. Why and what to do now?

    The lids were on, so very little. Do you think it's just a case of mold is everywhere and the humidity was too high? I usually don't use the lids and instead mist it a few times a day but it's really dry right now. Also do you think the seeds are still viable or I should just toss everything...

    Peat based. Miracle gro. The planters and pot plant have amendments but the starter pots are just the straight mix.

    56 starter pots grew grey mold overnight. Why and what to do now?

    Also post your mold stories if you want to. This moldy dirt scares me because I had yellow moldy dirt before (never spread to peat for some reason, maybe to acidic?), and it took almost 2 years to eradicate. Just when you thought it was gone it would pop back up and spread to a bunch more plants.

    56 starter pots grew grey mold overnight. Why and what to do now?

    Well this is something I haven't seen before. There are 56 pots in two covered seed starting trays and overnight they all grew grey mold. When found they were sprayed with 1tbsp per liter of 3% hydrogen peroxide. That little bit of mold on the inside of the pot got missed because it was...

    Tell me about your Bicycle

    FWIW I bought a box of samsung cells new from the factory for under $2 a piece. INR1860-30Q, 3000mAh. BMS and charging system was $15. Also, for spot welding, I am just dumping power from a capacitor bank. 0.4F cap bank in series with a variable voltage power supply and an SCR for triggering is...

    Top dressing with diammonium phosphate dap and conversion of application rates for land to pots.

    For completeness the fertilizer on the page is called lily formula. 16-12-15 is 2 parts DAP to 3 parts KNO3 to 4 parts Ca(NO3)2 16-18-20 is 3 parts DAP to 4 parts KNO3 to 2 parts Ca(NO3)2

    Top dressing with diammonium phosphate dap and conversion of application rates for land to pots.

    Well, I tried it and so far nothing has died so if you're reading this looking to correct a defficiency with brewing supplies, go ahead. I actually blended potassium and calcium nitrate with diammonium phosphate as recommended on that page and topdressed with 1/2 tsp of the mix. It did not...

    Police Interactions.

    Implying that drug dealers and gangs don't hurt others. Laws were created for reasons, sure sometimes innocent people or people who the law wasn't intended for get caught up, but it's not the cops job to write the laws. One of the principal functions of a jury and "the right to be tried by a...

    Top dressing with diammonium phosphate dap and conversion of application rates for land to pots.

    Hi, Has anyone used dap as a top dress? I am just trying to figure out if 1/4 tsp to 1.5 tsp is the correct amount. Let me start by saying any info posted below comes from Formulas and Suggested Guidelines for Horticultural Use - University of Georgia. The following table is where I get the...

    What fabric are smart pots made from?

    Mine are 2mm felt. I also have some 80 gallon felt pots for tomatoes and vegetables, I think it's 5mm and cost $30 if you are looking for something to cut up, maybe get a giant one. Also landscaping fabric comes in rolls.

    Diy calcium magnesium suppliment - calmag

    I think you meant precipitation. Environmental concerns. Canada produces more peat moss than it uses anyways, if it weren't for exports. Might be cheaper in countries without massive areas of peat bog.

    Can I added mono potassium phosphate

    Wanted to add my 2c here as well because I'm not sold on them either but who knows. 1) tapwater averages 5ppm Si (a bit less than rivers) 2) ground/wellwater averages 100ppm Si 3) The earth's crust is 90% silicates - if you have dirt in your pot you have Si 4) increasing the Si of your tap water...

    Can I added mono potassium phosphate

    1) MPK is acidic, check your pH. 2) every 1g of MPK you add per 100L is a 2.3ppm increase of P and a 2.8 ppm increase K. How much P and K do you have already and how much do you want. I usually run about 70ppm P and 160ppm K (160ppm P2O4, and 190 ppm K2O). 2.3:2.8 >> 70:160 which means MPK is a...

    How much W of led or cfl lights do I need for my plant to grow?

    I've always vegged under 3 23w cfls but just switched to 3 20w led bulbs because it's 1.5x as much light. This is for 2 plants in a 2 sq. ft tent, but I used to just use a white corner. You will need real lights for flower.

    Diy dry box

    Lol, I gave up on the drying box in favour of just a closed cardboard box and then paper bags just because of the effort. Appearance was always better in the box than in the bags but it's all percy to me.

    Diy dry box

    Nice box. I was drying in a similar setup, used a 120mm fan pulling air out and attached a piece of carbon filter to decrease airflow. You will probably want to run the fan 100% of the time for the first 2-3 days, just check it frequently, then go to a 1-2 hours on 4-8 hours off when the buds...

    Help with organics

    Now I'm not an expert here but I would just add some ewc to the pots and give it time for the amendments to break down? I've been reamending (GG per instructions) and mixing 50:50 with fresh soil because I think there's less chance of weird deficiencies or lockouts that way.

    Vermicomposters Unite! Official Worm Farmers Thread

    Good advice too. I think I found my answer anyways. From urbanwormcompany.com's vermicomposting 101.. They then go on to say that almost all problems are caused by overfeeding not underfeeding That's new to me. many places say to go through a sequence of spots but for some reason I imagined...
