Mornin' RIU,
I see we don't have a general plant forum, but my issue here isn't really with cannabis. I have a small backyard garden, roughly 10' x 5' (tomatoes, squash, garlic, pumpkin, cucumbers and three random bagseed cannabis plants). Here is my problem; There is a white powdery mold all over the leaves of my squash and pumpkin plants. It's chocking the shit out of chlorophyl production to these plants, and they've really suffered the past week. I attributed the white discoloration to over-fertilization as i'm using miracle gro outside. I have now come to the idea that this is not the case, but is actually a mold attacking my garden. There is also another type of mold, grey cobweb like with black dots throughout, and this attacking the pre-mature fruit of the squash, and even some of my pumpkins. Can anyone identify this second type of mold, just from my description?
I'm about to head to the local hydroponic grow supplier and see what they can recommend to help me out here. I'm hoping this doesn't spread to the tomatoes, and god-forbid my pot. Pics will be uploaded later.
