<p>Can't make a diagnosis without a photo; a lot of stuff looks alike, and it would be a bad guess. But here is a resource you can use, if you can identify the active rust or fungus:</p>
<p>I've attached a 17-page document on USDA organically certified aquaponics pest control techniques that my wife Susanne researched and wrote. We've been using all these successfully for at least 2-1/2 years on our USDA organically certified aquaponics systems; there is no conjecture or guessing about whether these treatments are safe for use with fish and plants.</p>
<p>I've also attached a copy of our "Planting Trials", that may also be useful.</p>

<p>First question is how much did you use? second question did you use it with the lights on? Any topical spray should be applied either with the lights off or right before you turn off the lights. Those water droplets turn into magnifying glasses under grow lights.</p>

<p>I'm not sure what pH should be applied, but I do have a detail that might come in handy. Spraying should be done in the later part of the afternoon.
