Yes, Mr. Duck, I'm sure you're right. My extraction fan rarely came on at night, and, yes, the humidity spiked every night--I have a humidity tracker.
You've given me info here that I can correct. I've been wondering what I can do to prevent this disaster from happening again, and I think...
As I wrote that, I suspected I might be corrected. Thank you very much for this information!
Mine was grey mold which I think is Botrytis. Thank you for the correction.
I hear you can get very sick from smoking moldy weed, though, as far as I know, I've never smoked any. It causes a lung problem.
If I were you, and I just finished drying and bottling, I would dry as usual. I used an air conditioner in my small room, set at 65* and a dehumidifier set at...
Nickmetal, mine were much worse than what I see here. You haven't lost your whole crop. The rot is most probably localized. Even in my case, it was localized.
It's happened once to me, before this time. All I did, both times, was to cut out the rot, and then proceed to dry and cure as...
Okay Emilya, you're the man ...er woman. I'm going to continue burping!!
What you've written here gives me impetus to do some research. Thanks very much!
Thanks for your response!
I dried in a very small room (10X10) with an air conditioner set to 67* and a dehumidifier set to 60% RH. I did have 2 small fans aiming at the hung branches, because I'd discovered some bud rot at harvest, and after I cut the rot all out, I didn't want to chance the...
So it's not true about the "oxygen feeding the micro-herd"?
I ask because I've got bud in jars where the RH is 61% and very stable--been in jars for about 1 week. I was able to dry it over a period of 7 days. It smells great. I have been burping, but it has seemed like a waste of time and I'd...
I just wanted to chip in here, just to make sure bud rot is not the issue.
I harvested this plant 2 weeks ago. Fuzzy Duck helped me out at that time with, what I thought was a copper deficiency, appearing on the fan leaves. It turned out that this wasn't the only issue.
Toward the end of...
I agree Fuzzy Duck--I have different problems every time I grow a plant :).
At any rate, she's coming down this weekend, for better or worse--I'm tired of waiting for enough amber trics. I will check it with a microscope before I take it down just for educational purposes.
Thanks for sharing...
Thanks for the input Fuzzy...
Hmm, not a copper deficiency... I've grown this strain prolly 8 times and never had this coloration--doesn't really mean much I guess, given that these are Pineapple Express from a different source than what I've used before. G-13 labs before and Weed Seeds...
Hey all,
RDWC, Pineapple Express, Flower day #77, Flora Nova Bloom and Cal/Mag, LED (Mars Hydro FC-3000).
I've been watching for tricombe maturity for a couple of weeks and the developement has been slow--at least it seems so to me. The plant's tricombes currently are mostly cloudy, and I'm...
