Really need some advice here you guys. I just put my clones into 1 gallon pots two days ago. They are chilling in a sanitized room that's 8ft by 8ft under 1000hps. I'm using [FONT=&quot]Bongaloid's Guano Mix for my soil. [/FONT]recipe #2. After i transplanted them I gave them 1 gallon of water. They were still moist yeasterday so I didnt give them more. This mornig I found a little bit of white molde chlling in the soil of all the pots. What do you think is causing this? I didnt have the fan on, could this be the cause of the mold? I have it on now. Did I over water? Maybe its the temp. The temp is at 61 and the humitity is at 53. Are these temps ok? Do i need a heater in there? If anyone has any input please drop me a line.
thanks!

Ok, so I just did some research, and I think I'm going to remove the areas that have mold, use a little bit of Cinnamon and mix it in real well with a fork. Then I was going to put some EWC on the top of the soil. I turned the fan on too. So, I was reading that I should be watering from the base of the plants. Does anyone else recommend this, and if so how should I go about doing this? Would I just put the water in the drainage plate? I think I may have given them too much water. How much water would you guys recommend feeding to 12/ 1 gallon pots? so, I have to wait until tonight, cuz my light is off now, so if anyone has any feed back on my treatment plan let me know. Thanks

do not worry

get a fan on them you should always have air circulating in your grow room

a little mold won't hurt anything

peace

next time pot them up into smaller pots first. the mold can be caused by the soil staying wet too long and small plants in big pots make it hard to water correctly

thanks everyone. I got the fan on now. I removed the mold last night. No signs of more mold so far. VerdantGreen, I do think the pots were too big, next time i will make sure to use smaller pots at first.
