Rust Fungi..!! First Time Having it. Need Some Help. Pics Included!!

What a bummer. I do not understand the sulfur burner? Why not just use the propane type heater and raise the temps up? I just don't understand, but I sure feel for ya. I have always related what those pictures look like to cold stunting, but I will believe you as far as it being that rust fungus. I did not know neem will smother fungus, but isn't that also going to clog the stomata?

Well the temperature is starting to raise here in So Cal. So between that and the extra light we put up, that fixed the low temps. So if low temps were the problem, the plants should start to correct themselves now. The only thing is we have the exact same strains outside and there not doing this. And there exposed to even colder temps and rain. You would think that they would do the same thing.

As for the Neem, I've read that it works by suffocating the fungus. The thin layer of oil that Neem leaves, is supposed to do that. I could be wrong on exactly how it works, but thats what I've read and what the Hydro store guys say. And I dont think Neem Clogs stomata's. If you spray a plant with Neem, they usually dont look to happy about it at first, then by the next day, there standing tall with nice glossy leaves.

So how can it suffocate fungus, but still let the leaves breath..??? I have no idea. Maybe as the Stomata's release moisture into the air, they break breathing holes through the thin layer of Neem that allow them to continue to breath. Maybe.

So I've been growing for many years, and have dealt with just about everything, from pest, to mildew/molds, lockouts, root rot.... you name it. But I've never came up against the issue of Rust Fungus. I just recently got it and its spreading like wild fire. I know that cold, wet conditions are ideal for Rust Fungus, so we plan to raise the temps, and apply some different Fungicides (since our current one obviously isnt working). The RH is already supper low in the room, so moisture isnt the Rating: 5
