thanks for the support guys!

Just moved into my new room today across the hall, but moving the AG was mind-numbingly scary! The whole 20ft i carried it, i was freaking out...

but anyways, now its got a MUCH better setup and location, and the fan is even positioned better, so the grow is staying between 85 and 95 consistently. Used to hit 100 sometimes, but the fan solved that! (I hung it from the opposite clothes-rack, angled to blow just over the top of the AG hood)

Decided to top my big girl, make sure the other guys can catch up height-wise. Had to move the AG hood up twice in one week!

Tomorrow, I replace the reservoir with 7ml/gallon nute mix, should hopefully bump up growth a bit
My room smells so dank every time I walk in, oh yeah!


Enjoy the pics!

Saw something today that worries me...is this the early stages of stem rot guys?
Or is it just the stalk brushing up against the grow-pod-paper-cover things?

a trick of the light? The plant looks healthy otherwise, but it's worrisome...

That doesn't look good. Looks like mine did when it was starting to get stem rot. Have you turned your AG pump off yet? What's the humidity in the grow room? If it gets worse, you might need to get some fungicide.

AG pump has been off for ages...as for humidity, no idea, never got a humidity-meter-thing


part of me says "fuck it, just flower now and see what happens", especially since they're still small and manageable...thoughts?

When were you planning on going into flower stage? After 3 or 4 weeks?


I dont know what it looks like. Like fox said, get some type of fungicide as a pre-measure. Just for shits and giggles :>

well, the grow as a whole is 4 weeks old. still vegetating. I've read of people flowering early at 4 weeks, with the only issues being lower yields...


What kinda fungicide do you guys recommend? I've been all over the "plant problems" section, and though there are VERY few threads of similar issues, the ones that are there do suggest stem rot.

They don't, however, say "buy Fungicide X and put X drops in your AG reservoir"....

It would be fine to go ahead and flower. I flowered at 4 weeks.

As for fungicide, hit up home depot or lowes and look for some stuff in a red spray bottle that's called "daconil." All you have to do is spray the stem where the rot is once a week til it's gone. Worked for me.

Good luck, I hope it helps.

I didnt find or have found a additive for fungicide but anything that relates to fungus has to do with Humidity. I bought this. Gives temp for outside,inside and Humidity level. Was cheap to at waly world.


Not sure if you rad this thread but it gives some pictures and some idea's. Stem Rot?

Wish i could be more of a help.

I wish my humidity was a little higher,Myself. But being in the desert it just does not get high at all.

Thanks Fox! I got the day off work tomorrow, so I'll hit up HD and Lowe's, try and find that Daconil stuff you mentioned...



I assume that's what you mean?


How much of it should I spray on...and will it damage the other plants that AREN'T rotted if I accidentally hit 'em with it?

cardinal, i actually must have missed that thread....I really hope it's not that Pythium horror!
The plant seems more or less hardy though, should I try scraping off the brown part, or try the Daconil first?


Also, it seems to be partially a moisture issue...keeping the AG reservoir partially-full should help here, right? Less chance of excess water reaching the grow sponges and whatnot?


Also, I guess a Humidity meter is now on my shopping list...
