alright so ive had a problem with humidity and mold, so it didnt bug me a whole lot but now im getting mold on my plants and its killing me, its like a web like mold, but im pretty sure its not spider mites. so i got some fungicide and im gonna try to use that, but i really have no way to bring the humidity down besides just keeping the door open more, any quick fixes for mold? besides fungicides, im pretty sure im dealing with aspergillus mold btw

yea its in my closet, and it just gets warm in there and water pools up under the plants, i just sleep a lot so i keep the door closed and when im not here i like to keep it closed, so the humidity stays up, i tried some fungicide that looked like it might be helping, i guess im just gonna try to keep my door open more and im trying new soil, just chuck up my losses to hash, that and the top colas seemed to stay close enough to the lights to keep mold away so a little smokage, im working into a new schedule cause well i cant make it two weeks till each harvest, so im switching to harvesting 2 plants every week instead of four every 2 weeks

You can buy a cheap de-humidifier from wal-mart for your humidity problem you should get that under control before they flower or your buds could be ruined. Make sure you clean out your grow space really well too to get rid of any spores.

Have the same problem and I feel for you. I live in the northeast and knew starting this late I was going to run into this but thought I would figure out a way to combat it. tried the de-humidifier. First cost 150 buck (ouch) and got the room WAY too hot. couldn't tolerate the heat over 90 and soaring to more. When it is too hot outside we turn on the air and that helps but we are having a cool down now and it is getting more humid in the house again so I just try different things to get it down. Mainly blowing the less humid air from the house into my room under the door. Have 3 weeks to go and then I can get some rest!!!!
