yes you do..fungi is an invasive species. its VERY difficult to deal with, and even more difficult when its colonized your body or home.

the white stuff is called bmeat it comes around when you least expect it ¬_¬

nah in all seriousness i would remove the 1st 2" of soil and replace it and then keep the air moving around your grow room and try to water them a little less as to stop the mold or fungi or what ever

i have extensive experience with fungi. when its on a non porous meterial, it needs to be scrubbed very well.

when its on a porous material (like soil) its even harder to deal with.

I'm listening. I am growing organically, and in the past when I had organic veg gardens I would have mold because of the rich soil. That was a good thing. But I have heard horror stories about a powdery mildew that eats the buds from inside out. First grow so I don't know.

I am posting to the Organic section too, but those guys don't wake up til 6:00 pm. :-P

The plants have always been bushy and grown in the closet so I'm sure air movement can be improved. I don't want to cut any leaves unless absolutely necessary.
Till your soil! Cultivate it regularly by tilling. It helps prevent this and helps get oxygen to the root zone - that is where plants take in oxygen. Not through their leaves but the roots.

i did that on purpose..

and i shouldn't say extensive I've a couple years experience with fungi

we study it in school and the links between fungi overgrowth and human and crop health. did you know if we made houses out of hemp instead of ply wood the walls wouldn't rot because hemp breathes?

p.s. i hate you navyfighter

You are gonna ruin this guys fuckin grow! the fungus is because he bought a high quality, organic soil from his local nursery. it's alive, constantly breaking down organic matter into a plant-useable form. IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE LIKE THAT! it's not gonna sprout legs, and jump onto his plant.......if you remove it, the next layer will have fungus too, because ALL the soil is alive. I add rice and rolled oats to my soil mix to INCREASE fungal colonies!!! I picked that up from the Rev and TLO

I've done organic grows with mushrooms right in the pot! then I smoked it! AND got high!

It's ok to worry, that's normal. but don't fix what ain't broke. learn to watch your plants, they will tell you when they're happy and when they're not.



to anyone else that thinks fungus and soil don't mix,
why do mushrooms grow at the base of trees in the forest? every year? without killing the tree?
why do we add mycos to soil?
have you ever read Teaming with Microbes?
why are there threads ON THIS SITE on how to brew fungal/bacterial dominant teas? I mean c'mon

cover the soil to keep it from getting light, it will be gone tomorrow.
no..oh my god.

scrape it off and apply h2o2 diluted once. 1/4 part h2o2, 3/4 water. if it comes back (which it will) do the week treatment.

its harmless in the soil, but you dont want it to spread to your plants.

I certainly never stated that this mold was a sign of "bad" things. Just the opposite. However, the fact the soil lies undisturbed long enough to support a colony of mold is not a good thing for your plants.

Your pH is off and you need Mg. ; )

Seriously.

Best advise is to look at non-cannabis related horticulture and botany materials. Try to find the answer yourself before asking. You'll learn a lot this way.
