Good day Nate, When i'm away for a whole week,even when i water really good...they still need a looking in on . I have a very long time trusted friend who just happens to be my main patient/customer, and helps me trim as well. He drops in ...and takes a quick look around, shovels the driveway/sidewalk, and gives the girls a drink. He gives them straight water only....no drenches , tea or foilers. Make it really easy for him. Have you got anyone close you can trust?
Zamals are that old...? not sure...have to look. They're doing OK, but need the big pots now....kinda bummbed i don't have the time to get at that! Anyhow cheers pal...gotta book!

Nate...I hate to say this, but I'm 99% certain you have a cpl spots of powdery mold on the big fan on this plant. Gently wipe it of with a wet paper towel for now.

Also, on the LST-ing with soft pots, just use paperclips and poke small holes through the lip with the clip


:cool:
 
Hey gov thanks for taking the time to observe.......here a few more of that leave in natural light......

My room does have unfinished drywall and when I open the door sometimes small drywall dust flies around the room..... That's why we wash....lol.....but really I wiped it off and will keep my eye on it.....the GR flixes between 50-63% rh..,....
 
Yep, mine did too (on the rh). My environment was in pretty good shape, but those conditions can also be prime for this crap. I battled it back and forth and ended up cutting and tossing a few nice little buds I hadn't noticed. It started exactly like that. A couple inconspicuous white fuzzy spots on a lower fan leaf that looked otherwise healthy.

Just keep an eye out for it man.
 
Mornin Nate....good eye there Gov.,...glad it's only drywall dust eh. Remember to always make sure you ventilate the canopy good....that one big cola of mine that went all moldy was at a place in the canopy that was not getting enough air flow. That was with the GOOD, fast pheno i had , the good one of the three. Those leaves are lookin great BTW...cheers eh!

Agree 99%. I don't think it's just drywall dust.
 
Oh Gov. sorry i thought it was determined to be just dust....is it PM on those leaves? If it is , i'm curious as to what the RH is in there and what caused it , genetics, too moist an enviro,visible mold in grow area, ? Anyhow , lets get to the bottom of it eh! It's bugging me now! Nate...can you get a pc. of that dust without destroying it , and have a look at it under a scope? Just to see once and for all , what it is.Cheers.

Yeah I checked it out last night, not under my loupe but I will, I did wipe off that leave, so I'll have to keep an eye on it.....should I be inspecting the under sides of the leave?
 
I'll admit I don't have THE answer, but I'd bet a fatty it's pm. Here's what I did...

1. Inspect all your plants closely...I know, I know, it takes a min. sorry.

2. If it's on lower leaf, just pluck them and place them in a closed bag to remove from the room/tent/area.

3. I have a 1/2 pint angled sprayer and mixed a solution of antiseptic for them (1/2c h2o2, 1/2 tsp baking soda, 1/2 tsp lemon juice topped off with RO). Let the baking soda and lemon juice react, add the h2o2 and top it off with water.

I sprayed this every few days if I saw anything. I did not inspect my plants thoroughly, nor did I prune them enough and I had a couple buds I had to toss. try to spritz anything you pluck with some of the spray so the spores don't get spread as you cut/pluck/wipe.

Aside from chopping everything and disinfecting the grow area (not suggesting it btw), the best solution is a sulfur burner...but that comes with a whole other set of precautions. After that, doing close inspections, cleaning/removing as you find it and an occasional spritz with the spray ( the spray maintains its efficacy for a few days so I only made fresh as needed) is about all you can do. Blasting buds with the spray isn't recommended as it will shrivel those pistils, but it's still better than letting that shit get a foothold so spray them if you gotta and pluck them if they're too far along with the crud.

I didn't prune some lower growth enough, and I didn't have enough air movement on the back corner of the tray. I learned my lesson.
 
Great post Gov. Man you got fantastic eyes to catch that , speck or two of PM , if that's what it is. If i had of had a better eye , i may have cought the mold that destroyed that one big cola of Desfran. I'm still pissed at myself over that one. Not enough ventilation at the canopy...i payed the price. Oh well....once again great post and Reps on the way for it Gov....it's a good one!

Thx man. Just hypersensitive to it right now is all, and the more I read on it, the more aggressive I found I needed to get. Catching it early and not waiting to see what it is as many of us may do at times will help.
 
Hey guys......been awhile.......got the wiring done in the new GR......I will have about 3x6 for bloom and in the corner a 3x3 veg tent, although they are in the same room both will be vented in and out individually, here are some pics........gotta get her ready for next weeks flip.......

A question I do have is for the veg tent I'm going platinum.......but what should I buy.......x2 p150's.........or one p300? I like the ability to have the 2 p150 for better coverage and always better two have two lights..remember I'm only vegging in this tent........I don't need a 450.....lol

The 3x6 area will have the 2 marsII 900's until they take a crap then prolly replaces with one p900..........oh yeah I have about 9 feet floor to ceiling.......bring on the sativas.......:high-five:.......have a good day all
 
Morning Nate, room looks great. I would always go with 2 lights vs. 1. FYI Platinum is no longer sponsored so you will probably get a nasty gram from 420. I've about reached my limit for warnings I think between mentioning banned people and unsponsored lights I will probably get the boot pretty soon. Anyway I love what you got going. I dropped 6 more tikals in water this morning. It is a big hit and I'm now getting request for cuts of it so I thought F it I'll just drop 6 and see what we get. Have a good one Nate.
:peacetwo:
 
I'd go with two lights as well, if budget isn't an issue.
Better flexibility, especially for heights, and you have a bit of a backup if one takes a dump on you.
Nice build!

:goodjob:
