hey led when your on water cycle is the water hitting the stem ????

No Doc. Those are 1/2 gph drippers. Water just dribbles out.

Your room is basically top notch man... Can tell you put a lot of time and effort into it. If its there to stay for a while purchase a commercial grade dehumidifier and never look back.... Sante Fe, Dri-eaz, and others... Solid units. Can probably find a used one on craigslist for the same price you would drop on one from Home depot,lowes,etc.

Thanks bud. Appreciate the kind words. Allot of money, thought and time went into my room.

That's just it, its looking like there won't be any licenses come next year so I don't think it's worth it to spend the cash on a really nice unit though I would live to have a sante Fe!!!!

Please look on previous page for pics of mould.

So an hour before lights on I foliar feed plants with full strength tea and Sea Green. Sprayed under canopy best I could and then sprayed the top. Then when lights came on I feed plants with 4 gallons of tea diluted with 4 gallons of water plus Sea green. If anyone has any suggestions or ideas about my mould situation please chime in. Thanks.

So here are the remainder of the pics I took today of my ladies. Day 13 flower

Well looks like you already sprayed... You have mold spores in your room if there is white mold it will spred quickly you need to treat your stems and stalks of your plants with a foliar solution of Dutch master zone follow the instructions on the bottle it has worked for others I know in the past Since you are in flower it is to late to spray Eagle 20.. Now for the black mold looks like you left a stem and did not completly cut it off this promotes disease and mold I would test a very light dose of Physan 20 as a foliar on a small area of the black mold if the zone dosent work on it..You do not want either in your coco they will both kill your bennies..

What are you using for a dehumidifier and what is your night time humidity and temps?

 

[LEDNewbie]

I have a 60 pint danby dehumidifier. Lowest it will get humidity down to is 72% up until yesterday I had my a/c turned off during lights off and night time temps were around 84 degrees cause the dehumidifier is running all the time. I'm going to order a second 70 pint dehumidifier. I have since set a/c to cool room down to 76.
I will head to he store tomorrow. Hopefully they have some Dutch master zone in stock. How do I spray stalks and stems and not get it on the coco??

 

[LEDNewbie]

Also do I want to spray underside of canopy or just the stalks and stems? How many applications? Just the one? Thanks bud!!!

I was gonna say same as jmo and suggest a mist of physan 20 on the stalk and surface of coco. If done right I don't see why it would seep into coco and kill bennies or get into the end product. Also, I used to use 35% food grade h2o2 at about 1 oz per gal and mist on the top of RW cubes to kill mold and algae. There too gotta just make sure you're only misting surface and not penetrating more than top 1/4".

And for number of apps, I'd repeat as necessary.

Do not turn off your ac at night it acts as a dehumidafier...What was the thinking behind turning it off?

 

[LEDNewbie]

What strength do u recommend on the physan 20? 1ml per 10 gallons? Thanks!!! I looked up the label online and it doesnt really say what strength to use for spraying plants??? Maybe the bottle has different instructions? Of course I phoned my grow store and they have never even heard of this product!!! SO just placed an order with amazon!!!

I had read that if you keep your night time temps as close as possible to your day time temps that this would help slow down stretch??

 

[scrulifson]

Hey man they are looking great!!! Im glad I checked out the journal. In reference to your night temps, you should try to keep them about 8-10 degrees cooler than your day temps. If it's to hot at night they will use up all the carbos created during the day. To help stop the stretch I found MOAB works quite well.

 

[jackmayoffer]

Well it might stop stretch a little but its going to cause all kind of mold issues who ever said turn off your ac should be punched in the face..I would use Dutch master zone first I would spray everything stems and leaves and if that dosen't work it should we have used it in the past then use physan 20 on the stems if zone did not work . I would spray 1 plant stems at 0.5 ml to 1.0 ml per 5gallon of Ro and see how the plant responds. Don't go crazy with the physans 20.. And Stop listening to everything you read on the internet unless some one has a history of documenting there proof ..And use Dutch Master just as the bottle says always spray 1 plant before spraying all of them...Always use lowest dose..

Really I have used Moab for a long time and never did it stop stretch.. At what rate are you using it and where can I see a side by side with it and with out it?

 

[BigGreen]

I have used dutchy zone as well for PM and it knocks the shit out. I sprayed it on in week 4 last grow and it killed off all signs of pm

 

[scrulifson]

I run it at 1tsp. per 5 gallons. It by no means stops the stretch lol, but I found it some what helps slows down the upward growth when flipped. I dont have any side x side comparison of plants, just because I havent ever really need to stop it. I think that anything with high P,K values help initiate flowering a bit quicker so some of the stretch may be reduced, just mho. I completely agree with the A/C though, Its never a good idea to shut that off lol. Mold is much worse than dealing with some stretch.

 

[LEDNewbie]

Thanks guys. I've learned my lesson!!!! Will spray with Dutch master and see what happens. I've placed an order for physan 20 and a 70 pint dehumidifier. Should have both by next week.

Let u guys know how things progress!!!

 

[LEDNewbie]

I was looking at instructions for the Dutch zone. Seems like its all for root drench. Should i just use those strengths? Also they have like three levels of strength from light to aggressive. Let me know what u guys recommend. Thanks!!!

 

[scrulifson]

I would recommend going with the light. I have found that more is not always better, in come cases lol.
