Black Mold

[amphiboius]

Dose anyone live in Arizona ?? Well i live in Bullhead City,AZ.. and i have been hearing something about this stuff called "Black Mold" and it grows everywhere an anywhere, well my wife found some growing in the kids bathroom in the shower, i mean i no kids are dirty an all but this Mold i heard is very deadly. So my question is, Will this be a problem for my Harvesting and Curing, im wondering if the plants can get black mold on them or if it will only be just mold, but i dont want that either

and if someone could can u tell me the most effective way to get this done so that ther is no MOLD at all, plezz tell me, this is the only part im really concerned about

i've grown in las vegas and tucson outdoors and have never had a mold problem of any kind and some of the strains produced those extra fat and thick beercan buds too. just keep the sprinkler off the tops when you water up to 3x's/day in the summer and they should be fine. it's just too damn dry outside and the wind will also help keep them dry. i always water by flood irrigation anyway (3x's/day during the heat of summer) and once every week or so give them a light shower after sunset to wash off the dust.

good luck fellow desert rat...

cool, thx guys. i appreciate your advice So...umm "del..." u live in Az now? if so, have you ever been to "Bullhead City"? well i hate this state i want to leave, especially this place but um the heat out here is outrageous, it reaches up to 115' and last year it broke a record(very stupid record)it got up to about 120'

that mold is called stackyvatris (spelling) you will get it anywhere there is constant wetness such as a water leak. Or as you stated a shower or bath. Even if you didnt have air flow in your grow area it would be improbable for that type of mold to grow unless you where constantly feeding it with fresh water. and I mean constantly. as in a constant drip on the floor or down a wall. it is dangerous mold tho, but it takes large amounts of exposer to it.

Fellow desert people my bathroom gets mold on the ceiling and walls and the maint. guy here gave me this shit to spray on it and wow completely gone. I think you could do the same by putting straight bleach in a spray bottle and zap it a few times. Close door and let it do its work, then open all windows.
Yes it gets hot here like 112 in july and humidity way down so i'm wondering is this why my seedlings are stretching. I had the flors right on top, in fact they were touching bulbs, got fans and good soil. 2 sets of small leaves, 4 in tall since Apr.23
DEL... any comments??

part time in hayden and part in nevada. yeah, been thru bullhead many times, especially after picking up the hayden house. been making many trips back and forth getting it set up and usually try to avoid hoover dam when the truck is packed...they can be a real pain at the check points. so that means either going thru page or laughlin...
it is a bit more humid there from the river/lake but still shouldn't be a concern for mold on an outdoor plant.
