Go and buy yourself some earth from a local shop or somin man.... or if u have some more replace it...

Be sure to clean you'r Pot before the earth go's in there. Sorry but that looks ugly man ^^

Four days into flower isn't that long. Why don't you get some decent compost & repot them again in some good soil. Stick them for another week in veg to ease the transplant shock & then put them back in flower.

What if I have mold on the top of my rockwool. Do I need to just cover it or is there a remedy to get rid of it with out hurting the plant? Thanx for any help, kinda new to this.

Mix 30ml of 3% peroxcide per gallon into your water and that should kill the mold.

I would tear the rockwool off that has mold...... also would put new rockwool around the teard off area...

Soil has mold..... that sucks, its either to moist in there, or theres some fungus growing in there anyway ....... :-o

You can either use hydrogen peroxide as suggested already or you can go to your local walmart or whatever and get some spray that includes a mold killer. There are many sprays that do multi function also, you might just browse the isle and try to find one of those so you can kill two birds with one stone, or at least prevent bugs while killing the mold too.

One spray I use includes a fungicide, miticide and insecticide all in one and is completely non toxic and can be used until day of harvest if you absolutely must. It's called "Tomato & Vegetable 3 in 1" it's by Bonide brand and comes in a white spray bottle with purple accents and is sold in most stores I think. Primary ingredient is Neem Oil, great stuff. I've seen it around a lot anyway. There are other brands though too.

I prefer the multi purpose stuff so that I don't have to buy a bunch of different things, it adds extra protection and control to the crop at no extra cost, and also cause it means less spraying which is a real pain just in itself.

There's really no point in transplanting now even though that's naturally tempting. The mold is in there and you can't ever get rid of it with a transplant, that will just shock and add time to your grow but not fix anything.

The mold on your soil will not infect your buds provided you keep your buds dry aside from a spray like this. No spraying of any water during budding now that you know mold is there. Try to reduce the humidity in your grow.
