Mold....

Okay, I have found this small patch of what seems to look like mold. Humidity isn't a problem and neither is air circulation. 78F & 40rh. I am using GWS Mycorrihizae. Could that just be benecial rhizosphere mold? I'm not too sure.

Plant is doing fantastic, no damage to leaves/buds besides a potassium/calcium prob i had. No other signs of mold on the other 2 plants

400w HPS & 315CMH
FFHF & COCO 50 50
Canna Nutes, GWS Mycorrihizae & King Kola Bloom Booster
R/O water

Day temps: 78-80F / 35-40RH
Night temps: 65F / 30RH


Thanks, Dankus.

I forgot to mention that out of 3 drainage holes, there seems to only be 1 hole with this "mold".

Your environment is dialed in, plant is happy....

How old is the girl?
I have more drain holes and also to the side,pot size?
How often are you watering, top or bottom water??
I'm a sub cool dirt farmer, so I have never worked with coco.

Why do you use a 50/50 on FoxFarms and coco? Just curious

This one is about 2months. It's in a 1gal plastic container with 3 drainage holes. I top water every 2-3 days.

I use a 50 50 mix due to the FFHF being really compacted when watered. The coco allows the soil to breathe better and dry off more consistently. Thats just the way I do it haha!

Cheers, Dankus.

If you are using beneficials (GWS Mycorrhizae) I wouldn't worry about it, likely a mycorrhizae growth. I remember worring about this when I had some rapid rooters that got old. They told me not to worry it was the mycorrhizae

Saprophytic mold maybe? Feeds on decaying stuff, likes it damp. Probably not interested in a living plant.

I like your style. I to have ran a 60/40 mix of ffof/pure coco and loved it. Just gotta supplement that cal/mag cuz the coco locks it out. Currently I use about a 60/40 blend of ffof/readygro aeration
