Out of curiosity, your nuting your seedlings at only 2 weeks? how far along are your seedlings (node wise) how many leafs?

A couple of mine are close to 2 weeks that's why i ask.

Flush your plants well.

Put the Nutrients away for the next three weeks or until 5 sets of branches (Internodes). Then start at 1/4 to 1/2 stength and if no ill effects, increase for next watering.

What is the humidity in the room?

Do you have standing water in the room?

Probably better to fill in the form and post in plant problems...

yeah ive been nuting since day one with a 1/2tsp of Thrive Alive B1 per gallon (root stimulator 1-1-1), then about a week in i hit it with the fox farm grow big and big bloom, and a 1/2 tsp of epsom salt every now and then.

i also took your advice and read on the forums about adding hydrogen peroxide to the nutrient formula, but i just flushed them with a weak solution of peroxide and water and that seemed to do the trick;]

btw the mold is gone. thanks guys. humidity is about 50%, temp @ 76-79 and the room (closet) is clean. id post pics if i could figure it out.
