I had it in one plant in coco in two years. I hate hydro, some people are good at it, I suck at hydro, pythium, Fulsarium were rampant in hydro for me.

Any Updates?

I've found certain strains that are fusarium resistant. Minimizing environmental stress and drenching with a lot of bacteria products is helping. Subdue and Heritage create a noticeable difference in plant health also. This disease is everywhere and spreading quickly, just have to learn how to co-exist.

I agree about the spread, well actually with all of what you said...caps teas, orca, and aquasheild have been standard for just about every watering, time consuming and expensive not to mention just a pain in the ass....

do you feel like sharing which strains you've had better luck with?

application rates for both SubDue/Heritage please????? foliar or as a drench, and how long after this do you have to wait in order to re-introduce bennies and myco's

I'm in coco, those are drench application rates. I don't know how effective sprays are for fusarium. How do you know you have fusarium? Lab test or seeing symptoms?

Rascal's Fire OG has done well for me. Any strain that grows quickly and is hearty. Most og's don't do well against fusarium. I use the subdue and heritage weekly rotating between them in veg. I feed bennies a few days after drench each week. Keep feeding the bennies in flower also.

symptoms... I have sent some samples in to a lab, results aren't back yet.... I'm scared, just preparing for the worst. I have been struggling for the last year and half or so.... I thought it was a new environment I just hadn't dialed in yet I no longer feel that way... I know I'm battling some unforeseen pathogen or fungi

Thanks NL ill see what happens

I've only had a few plants wilt in a few years. Major signs are around week 3, once PK starts to be increased. That added stress makes the plant look unhealthy with deficiencies and yellowing. Also get the pink stems like P or mag deficiency. If you ever see a plant where all the leaves are small and same size throughout the plant is a sign. When you harvest look at crown, you'll see the pathogen entering the plant through the root system and into the plant leaving a brown ring.

Use Physan 20 to sterilize everything, even soak your seeds in a mixture of it before popping. Cannot remove it from cuts without tissue culture lab. Shower, new clothes, shoes etc every time going between grows. I'm building a new spot also with UV lighting in my entryways that kills spores on contact. All these precautions and fusarium could still come in through our water supply, or on grow supplies.

ever think of running ozone? i'm knocking on wood every time i read one of these forums where people have plants dying from fungal infection. i'm in the process of buying a second ozone generator. i've got one in flower, that runs 15 minutes on 30 minutes off. runs around the clock. have not had any fungal outbreaks of any kind here.

2nd ozone generator will be for the entire warehouse so that i don't have to worry about the area surrounding my grow rooms. keeps odors down to a minimum and airborne spores dead on contact.

but beware...ozone is a dangerous chemical.

mfg.. recommendations? how do you size a unit? how do you calculate load and run times for a given area/volume etc.?
