The only way to fight grey mold on marijuana plants is to prevent it. The easiest way to avoid mold is by growing in a controlled environment. However, if you plan to grow outdoors, you should consider growing Cannabis that is resistant to mold.
The Cannabis species is an expert at adapting to its environment. Because of this, some strains are naturally better at resisting mold than others. In general, indica plants are more likely to develop mold due to their compact nature and dense buds. However, some indica dominant strains developed less dense buds, and are, therefore, more resistant to mold.
Other marijuana strains are considered mold-resistant when trimmed. This means these strains are hearty enough to withstand advanced growing techniques, such as lollipopping and low-stress training. These pruning techniques reduce the chance of mold by increasing airflow and light exposure.
