Cinnamon Prevents Damping Off in Seedlings

[FoolsParadise]

Lost two seedlings to damping off this season. (Thankfully I had a couple spare seeds.) Did some research and found out that sprinkling a small amount of cinnamon over the soil after seeds are planted will help to prevent it. Also have a small fan operating now.

Thanks for the pointer. I'll put it in my notes.

2 weeks ago, I almost lost all my new seedling due to damping off. I used little sticks so they would stand, cleaned all my dwc setup with hydrogen peroxyde, and added hygrozyme to my nutriments and they are all growing strong again. I did not think that would work but they were going to die anyway. Of corse, there is a few that might not survive but they are still better than 2 weeks ago. Sorry for the bad pictures
