Semi Hydroponic Roting/fungi

[shushu45]

Smell the rot. I'm not saying touch ur nose to it but smell the air around the plant. I picked up that technique From working the the microbiology lab. I know it sounds weird but that's how I tell if there is rot or not.


I give u a few examples. In the microbiology lab some bacteria give off a smell. This isn't really relevant in determining what microbe it is though. Example: E. coli has a musky earthy smell to it. Pseudomonas Has a frutiy smell. And Staphylococcus arias has a (what I think) a rotting carcus smell.

Fungi has a moldy smell. I know that one is obvious

Now what I has observed from buying some leca it has its own smell. Even after cleaning it. Before cleaning it it smelled like chemicals and dirt. After rain and dirt.
