Is this mold and how do I prevent it?

[JaymzD91]

Been a while since I watered wanted to see the root development and this is what I see. How do I prevent this in the future?

Dont think so, if you feed with proper amount of nutritions, right temperature and correct pH, i would dont bother myself about how the soil looks

It isnt gonna hurt my ladies? Only noticed it with the soil with little perlite.

Could be mycelium?

That is mycos. It's good for your roots.
That soil looks more like dirt. What's in it?

I used promix with nothing else. Mightve put some worm castings in there. Nothing to worry about?

Mushrooms?

Mushrooms?

Yup yup, fungi. Mycelium is really common in out door soils, garden beds, flower beds etc.

 

[Saul.Goodman]

If it is mycelium, it's nothing to worry about and can be very beneficial to your growing medium. I haven't came across it in an in door grow but we are dealing with soil, moisture, nutrients and heat. Basically we are creating the perfect environment for mycelium.

It's good.
Mycos are the Mycellium fungus spores that turn white on the outside of the soil. Yes, they come from mushrooms, and No, you can't grow magic shrooms with them. Not that way anyway.

Interesting I shall read into this. I want incorporate companion plants like basil and lavender.

Make sure they are not competing for the food. Some plants are very aggressive.
