So sorry about the issues my friendThe Good, The Bad & The Ugly
My plants have been loosing leaves more and more recently. Plus, I've noticed a large number of mushrooms popping up under my Wild Lady cultivar. Knowing that moisture helps fungus to grow, I decided to remove the mulch that I placed all around my Wild Lady during the summer heat.
What I found alarmed me. As I uncovered the soil I found lots of evidence of fungus in the soil. I then inspected the soil around my RVDV and Durban Poison... all of them had the very same infection. I gave a gentle tug on the RVDV and she came up from the ground and fell over. I was shocked and horrified, to say the least!
Long story short... all three of my sativas are dead, with nothing to harvest from the Table Mountain girls and only one single quart jar from the Durban Poison, which is the "good", I guess. Needless to say, I am mortified!!!
Here are some pics:

The Durban Poison was the worst of all. It looked like it had been dead for decades. I couldn't bare to take any pics of here. Sorry.
This all happened Sunday, Oct 27. It's taken me a week to work-up the courage to post this, as this is a gut-punch to me.
Damn! I hate this fungus!
Stay safe
