I mixed my own soil using potting soil spag. peat moss vermiculite perilite bone meal blood meal de. lime sulphur green sand I put it in a resealble bag and when I opened it the next day there was this fuzzy mold growing on top. What is this? Is it bad for the plants, i mean do I have to start with new dirt or could I use the dirt? Should I just leave the bag open to the air? I forgot to mention that I already used some of the dirt to germ some seeds, now I see the same fuzzy mold in the peat pots around the edges. The seeds haven't sprouted yet should i start over?
That will happen when you seal medium in a bag,,,your medium contains organic materials...leave it ventilated.
I planted 24 bbs--all from different bagseed and I'm anxious to see something. This is the first time I'm using art.lights. got a 400w hps w/mh conversion. am on day 2 of my experiment. should I put the light on or wait til they sprout? Will they germ faster w/ light?
keep warm,,but wait until they sprout for the light,,,when they do pop out of the medium,,flourescent 2 inches above seedling will give them a great start......HID after they stabilize..
