Anything Helps Well Appreciated!?!?!
Any suggestions On Both well Appreciated!!!
All I can help with is the stretching - soil isn’t my medium and frankly I’m anticipating the one soil plant I have probably just dying an untimely death. Sorry about being no use there.
That said - what lights are you using at what strength and how far away from your plants? I had a very leggy seedling because I left it in darkness about 12 hours too long. I have a germ light about 8” from her top now to overcome the incredible stringy base she started to develop from reaching for lights. I can hazard a guess that you need a) stronger light. b) your lights closer to the canopy. Or c) both a stronger light and lowered closer to the canopy.
Im Useing A 600rspec by Hlg and on 100% power currently and just raised it up some , currently im at28-34 in, the highest branch is at 28in and showing no buring but other plant was so I rasied it some @Graysin
@Budbunny
Curious. I wonder if lower power but dropping back closer might help. But I have some generic LEDs that probably put out a total of 300 watts with both on full power, so I would have to try hard to burn my leaves. Your HLG without a doubt is stronger than both my lights put together.

Id get the plant with mold out asap i can almost guarantee its already taken over the roots it will die off slowly plus you do not want it spreading to anything else id remove all plants and do a good clean up with clorox wipes or a light bleach water solution of the tent especially fans and anything that moves air id also recommend taking youre light to say 40%-50% power you don’t need full power for just veg

I’ve heard about using vinegar to treat mold but you have to be SO CAREFUL because the acidity can kill roots

@Budbunny that’s much less alarming. Sad to say but I’d toss it or use it for compost, but get fresh stuff for the next round of growing

Were u storing u excess dirt n a molded plastic container? If so that’s a no, no, RH inside the tub sky rockets, thus the mold, n resulting financial loss. I keep any unused dirt n the original bag, it has perforated holes to keep RH down, allowing air to circulate around the entire bag. As for ur plants stretching, I can’t tell from ur pics, but lighting is usually the culprit. Either ur lights r to far away from ur plants, r they need to b turned up a bit, if ur lighting is adjustable. As for ur molding dirt, if u gots a product that deals with it, give it a try, who knows it might work. In my experience, the molded dirt is returned unharmed back to Mother Earth.
