Backyard Aquaponics
A place to discuss aquaponics

Hey Friends,

I need some help. I have mold growing in my grow beds that has plants that are about 6-8 weeks old, my bean plants are showing signs of contamination and the larger sun leaves are starting to spot and wilt. I have pictures of the molds growing that I cannot attach because the files are too big. I need to know how to rid the mold without killing all of my plants and starting over. This is the first time we have tried aquaponics and with the amount of money invested I don't want it to be in vain. It's an indoor system and we have central air, my theory is that once we turned on the air some air born spore ended up on the surface of my grow bed where conditions are ideal. Any information will be helpful, such as how to attach a pic that's too large for this system or a few remedies I could try that have stopped mold and not killed plants.

Thanks guys!!!
(Guys is a universal term for both sexes)So please, no one take offense to that.

Hello Sundkist

You have to shrink the pictures first.

Google for some pictures of plants with mildew, if it looks like that you could use some eco fungicide and spray it on the leaves, I always get it on my cucumber plants.

Cheers
