Fusarium Wilt Help??? Plus Rep

Has anyone had any problems with fusarium wilt? Heres the story, I recently transplanted a set of both clones and fresh seed stock. And the next day one seed starts wilting looking like it was over watered. The following day its covered it brownish gray nercotic spots and the tips of the leaves are curled upward and died. That same day one of my clones started the same "wilting" appearance. Oh i'm planting in sub's super soil (roots organic base) cooked for about a month An Pro-mix Hp for the top of the containers?

Please any help, ideas, past experience's would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance TSW

I can't speak from experience, luckily, but usually with fusarium or verticillium wilt you're fucked. Some biologicals like mycorrhizae might help improve a plants resistance to it, and others such as Bacillus pumilis and subtilis along with some Streptomyces and Gliocladium species help to suppress bad fungi. Compost tea may also help prevent infections.

Really though you'll pretty much have to scrap everything and sterilize all of your equipment and grow room.
 
Thanks Null,
To be honest im not even 100 percent sure i have it, only those two out of ten tranplants into the same soil showed the signs. The first one i removed one day after i8 identified it, the next i let sit for a few days longer and to my surprise it started to come back from the wilting. For safety i removed it anyways. so ill wait and see, for now. Thanks for the help again.

How big of a buffer space did you use between the roots and the super soil? If they got right into the super soil it may have shocked them. If they're coming back though, that's a good thing.
