is it actual growth or is it just coloring on the perlite? How's your air quality? the perlite could be filtering some particulates or something out of the air, it's a pretty porous material and it looks to be filling in the holes quite snugly. Do you smoke anything in the house or anything like that?

It's probably fine. Even if it's not fine, it'll eventually be fine. So it's fine.

Looks like heavy iron in your water oxidizing at the air holes. I would have your water tested, or you can get distilled water and use it on your next SGFC and see if you have the same results. Could be an environmental mold of some kind, but usually molds need more than just water to start to grow. There isn't any nutrition in the perlite.

Also more holes!

Oooh, you might be onto something there. Theres 5 cigarette smokers in the house and 4 of us smoke pot daily as well. There's literally never NOT something burning in here.

Rust seems possible but i imagine it wouldnt be so focused right at the holes. I get really good FAE so I feel like if it was rust i would see it elsewhere in the FC.

MORE holes? Dude I've got over 300, and I'm fairly certain I actually accidentally put too many in already, are you sure?
