is this mold??
    #23973558 - 01/01/17 05:04 PM (7 years, 1 month ago)

I have this white stuff at the base of my one fruit. I have had some stuff "like" this before but it was fuzzy and was determined to be "fuzzy feet" mold. But this stuff isn't fuzzy and feels solid like the stem of the fruit is. Anyone know if this is ok or bad, should I cut the bottom half off after harvesting it?

its a few inches from wall but that's the only place I have to put it. I do fan often though. Will it be ok to eat, is it mold?

Yup those are waterlogged, starting to become bacterial. More fae, lest misting. Those are safe to eat but if you continue the same practice those caps will start to rot.

Fuzzy feet is not a type of mold, it's a reaction fruits show to bad grow condition (i.e. low fresh air exhange and constant high humidity)

Your fruits will be ok but they look like your FC needs a bit more air exhange.

Can tell you more if you post a pic of your whole setup.

Should I take out the bottom feed trays the cakes are sitting in?

It's the to high of humidity that's the problem. The air is staying way to moist, it needs to fluctuate. Water is not evaporating fast enough, if at all. The only fix is more fresh air exchange and less misting. If you mist and check the cakes a few hours later and it looks like you just misted then that's a dead indicator of lack of fae.

That white stuff is just mycelium, it will be there for the duration of the grow. Sometime you can have everything dialed in perfectly and still get fuzzy feet. When that happens you can chalk it up to genetics. But in your case it's %100 fae issue.

:whathesaid:

Your setup looks good.

Fanning won't help with FAE though, unless you're fanning it constantly.

How many times a day do you mist? And are they in a closet?

Thanks I have been trying to follow peoples advice to the T. Its in my small laundry room that washes and dry's laundry every day, sometimes 2-3 loads. we do lots of laundry and it probably keeps the temp and humidity levels up as the door is closed most of the day. I opened the door up to get more FAE. I fan every 2-4 hours except for at night when I'm sleeping.

Should I put a small fan in there to move air?

That is a very good idea and would help greatly.

But the trick is to balance relative humidity and FAE.  As you increase FAE, RH will drop, so you have to try and find yourself the perfect point between.  I think this is the most important thing one learns about fruiting in this hobby.

Also, remember not to put your fan pointing directly at your FC, that'll surely dry them.

Yeah I have a small fan that I will put on floor facing the other direction.

It all looks good, just a matter of dialing in that air circulation
