Is it moldy or just the strain characteristics


Not sure which strain it is either Durban poison or Mowie Wowie seedlings we’re dug up by raccoon and found them no longer in their starter cups !
Didn’t want to trash it so I stuck it in the ground outside ! Possums kept digging it up outside looking for grubs ! I put tomato cages to stop them from digging them up night after night !
Anyway my question : does it look like those bids are moldy ? Or is it nutrient overload !
I been kinda using these as experimental since I wasn’t sure they would grow !
Only feeding so far other than 6.5 ph water is calmag ! Liquid dosing mostly
Did try once eith powder calmag dissolved in water !! Way too much plant was in shock and half her leaves turned yellow

The white specs on the leaves look suspiciously like powderly mold. I have yet yo encounter it in my grows…fingers crossed. There are some products out there that will treat it during flower, but you’ll still want to do a budwash when you harvest and before you hang to dry. Hard to tell from the picture, but that’s my best guess.

Ok you lost me “ bud wash” ? Never heard of it !
So I just run em under a faucet ?

Bud wash is dipping them in a peroxide and water mixture right after chop before drying. If you put bud wash in the search bar it should pull up quite a bit. I have never done it but have watched a couple videos on here about that.

I could be wrong that doesnt look anything like the durban I grew. Could be the maui.

Ya it’s essentially two containers: one has a peroxide/water mix and the other is plain water to rinse the peroxide off. You just give them a dunk in the peroxide mix first, swish it around some and then straight to the water rinse. Shake off excess water and hang to dry. Pretty straight forward. I highly recommend for outdoor grows or when using pesticides.

Thanks to all you guys !
Never knew!!
Definitely be doing that !

I’ll post a pic tomorrow of the other one
Maybe someone can tell me which one is which

one thing I found that helps, after I harvest I make a mixture of pure maple syrup and Rum~ and mist them before I bring them inside. The alcohol kills any bacteria (and dries quickly) or bugs and the syrup helps to keep the trichs attached.

have you searched for spider mites, Yellowing leaves with brown spots may indicate spider mites are feasting on your outdoor plants.

Spray with 2% milk until it’s dripping it will kill White powder mold and won’t hurt your plants. Try twice a week see if it helps. Good luck

I agree with @Nanny leaves look like they have bug damage from spider mites.

If you’ve ever done this you won’t do it again. It leaves a protein layer on the plant that flakes off over time and only does a moderate job of killing WPM. A dilute peroxide mix is more effective and leaves zero residue.

Yesterday I posted a pic of my sick looking plant ! I look out my window everyday to check the plant as I’m on the edge of woods and I get a lot of varmints! I noticed the buds looked blackish that’s what started this! I said I would post the other plant to show the difference !



That’s the other one about 5ft away which worries me that it may be too close together and both may end up diseased !

Obviously see the bugs this morning on what I believe is a Durban. Second pic is unknown as well the stain, but the real story is the three girls are all the same age. The last photo is only about 8 inches tall and the bugs pic is what I believe is Durban. Hell I’m not even sure what the bugs are I’ve seen the black one before I’m my veggies garden!
To be clear these were sacrificial plants once they were dug up by raccoons! That’s why they are outside !


There is the real garden ! Indoors is always easier to control but if the outdoor grow works the yields are exponential bigger under the correct circumstances!
Thanks yo all who responded to my posts !!

That looks like spider mites and leaf miners.

Had a feeling it was some kind of spider mite ~ thats another problem… beside the weather. Ive been prepared this year~ in my many years of growing this stuff~ Ive encountered pretty much all the problems with an outdoor grow~ This year I battled a lot but some how and so far Im winning~ A few more weeks is all Im asking. They have to be 7foot at least~ Indoor grows wouldnt give me this much ~
