So I am 30 days into flower and I think 1 of my little ladies has rust fungus. Has any body dealt with it before this late in and if so what did you do?? Waiting on camera to charge then I'll have a few pics up. Been just taking leafs off as they showed sings, read on the net that I shouldnt spray this late into flower but thought I would check with some real growers to see if yous might have some in-sight on what to do.
 
Sorry i cant answer your question but how many days total are you at? and what type do you have?
 
IMAG0057 - Copy.jpgIMAG0056 - Copy.jpgIMAG0055 - Copy.jpgIMAG0054 - Copy.jpg 92 days old from sprout and 30 days into flower, bag seed, Starts a tiny tiny red specs then a few days later turns to this. Started on the bigger fan leafs and is now slowly progressing up. Baking soda, soap, and water is for fungus in veg but not sure if i can use it in flower.
 
spellbound, are you sure it is rust fungus? I have never seen it diagnosed here, or anywhere else I can remember actually. What is the RH and temp inside your room?

If it is rust fungus your best bet this late in the grow is a sulfur burner and continue to remove any visibly affected plant matter. Don't just pick it off and throw it in the garbage. Take that stuff far away and if you can burn it. The spores will transfer via wind if you put it somewhere else. I posted a link below to a pretty ingenious burner you may want to consider. If you have a dehumidifier, run it full blast. Try to get your RH as low as possible and get the temps into the mid to high 70's. That will slow it down.

Another video to consider after you harvest your weed.

Yep. leafs go straight into a shopping bag and straight to the trash can out side my house. Now this is a plant is in a scrog with another plant but its not being effected. I read they can eat some mag. when in flower stage but she gets 2 teaspoons of epsom salt to 1 gallon every feeding and 2 teaspoons of molasses to 1 gallon every watering. Is it possible the b**ch just wants more? Not really seeing the light color in-between the veins of the leafs for a mag deficiency. RH steady 48% temps. 83 on 75 off. Fans blowing from under the canopy and across the top as well.
 
Yeah not mag but that was my first thought with out pics lol

Looks almost like a calcium deficiency ,Whats your ph? cause something is getting locked out for sure
 
6.3 - 6.4 Nectar for the Gods nutes and they are a calcium base nutes.
