Yea i know they wont hurt nothing but my thoughts were that there a fungus sorta thing an if the ground level is of good conditions for a fungus to grow i thought hittin it with some mancozeb would put a stop to any mould or other fungus related problems from occuring.. And hittin the undersides of the plants to help keep any mites from spreadin round
Really wouldn't worry about it. Unless you're over watering it's a good sign and you have mulch anyway. Just pull the mushrooms out if they bug you that much.
I'd be more worried about your fungicide killing any beneficial fungi like mycorrhizae. Imo if the plants are healthy then it's all good.
Just my 2cents.

Yours truly whipping-up the kettle finings for a 1000L batch of beer brewed on a professional system a few years back. It was a very hot day & we were all absolutely pissed as farts.

The bloke that took the photo's said in passing that it looks like Stag Semen whilst I had my hand stuck in this tub of lumpy white goo & completely lost my composure...:P

Cheers bloke yea plants are from wat i can see healthy as no real dramas with them.. l didn even think that it would kill any beneficial stuff was only lookin at it as a preventative an nah the mushies dont bother me much at all.
 
i was about to change over the red/blue leds to the 130w cfl's tho right as i went to check up on my plants last night all my northern seeds have sprouted under the red/blue led i know i planted like 5 seeds into 1 pot, because i have had fuck all luck lately in terms of germination etc...tho in terms of where i should go next from here what would be your best suggestion, this is how it looks so far and these are the nutrients im going to be using as suggested, any advice would be much appreciated as im a first time grower.

KISS principle is best. Keep It Simple Stoner.
2 Part nutrient base for veg and a 2 part for flower and a bottle of Cal/mag. Worry about all the other stuff after u get a few successful grows under ur belt. There is no point adding stuff if u dont have a base line.

Nah, that wasn't my glass (I don't think?). Funny thing about these events is that everyone gets so riotously pissed, they forget where they left their glass when they put it down to go & do something that needs doing towards the brewing, then spend 20 minutes trying to find it.....

So I have been running these high bay dual 315w lights for a while now. Being high bay they have always given me the shits. Great for growing but shit for head height.

I had called the company in the past and asked if they can be altered to be horizontal and they said no.

Well i have had enough and decided to pull one apart and see if it could be done. Piece of piss.

3 holes is all i had to drill. And 2 new nuts which i havnt got yet. Have to duck over to Bunnings.

When i mixed all me soil up at the start i used a mushroom compost from local garden an landscapin joint an the bloke said i would not have to worry about any mushrooms or anything like that growin in it as it was cooked or what ever to kill off any of the spores an recently iv found 6 of them growin. I know it will do nothing to affect the plants but i was thinkin of drenchin the mulch with a fungicide/miticide an bottom of the plants, would that have any affect on the plants?.

Edit: might not be from the mshrm compost i did do a layer of compstd cow manure before i layd the mulch..

u have to have the legs for them
The running joke from then-on with the boys each time has been: "I dealt with the stag the first time & left him leaning-back on one elbow smoking a cigarette with a satiated look on his face, so someone else can deal with him next time..." :P
