I have had that as well. It happens with any "live" potting soil that is moist. It is a good sign and does no harm. Go ahead and use the soil.

First time growing indoors, I noticed something...
Hi everyone, my 2-day-old autoflower seedling is bending even though it’s under a Spider Farmer SF1000D LED, 60 cm above the pot in a 60×60×180 cm grow box on 16 h light. Is this normal, or should I adjust lamp height, ventilation, or support?

Smelly Autopot Reservoir. Normal? Advanced Nutes. Water pump stirs every 15 minutes for 4 minutes. Hole in cover blocked
Looking for experience with the Autopot system. This is the first time I have used it. 12gal reservoir. I change out the res weekly but by the end of the week it has a foul smell to it. Cleaned each time with half bottle of 3% Peroxide. Is this par for the course? Thanks!

Should I repot to a pot with drainage?
I have been reading that drainage is very important. I am using a very large terracotta pot, which does not have drain holes. Would it be recommended to repot, drill holes in the bottom or should it be ok? I'm hoping that as the pot is very large it shuold not be an issue

Do I need a exhaust fan?
Do I really need a exhaust and intake fan for a 20x35x63 grow tent? Would a exhaust fan alone work and let air passively come in from a bottom “vent”.? Thanks!!

Well water PPM/EC looks REALLY high. What to do?
I just did a quick test of our well water with a new cheap little meter and found that with our softening system on I hit 267PPM and an EC of 568(!). When I bypass the softening system I end up with 209ppm and and EC of ~450. Am I killin' my own plants?
