NOOOO sorry to hear this Popcorn:/

Sorry im not around guys, electrics are playing havoc at the flat, my ballast and or light has broke and i noticed a some bud rot so got loads going on

 

[Grand Daddy Purp]

Bummer man.

 

[JokerJohn]

sorry to hear about the bad news pop. hope things look up for ya

I have managed to get my room running again, what happened was the light fitting that connects to the ballast had a slipped wire inside which was causing the Live to Jump straight to the Earth which was shorting the entire circuit of my flat out whenever it was being turned on, so i had no light for about 2 days but i was just using the small cfls to keep the light schedule still running until i was able to fix the problem, luckily a friend found his spare ballast and light fitting which was all set-up last night and is running better than mine ( silenced ballast aswell so i want to keep it now lol) so problem 1 has been sorted.

With the budrot after my lights had gone humidity became a problem (90% + ) and so i had to buy a bigger dehumidifier which i also recieved yesterday ( thank god for a contingency fund LOL ) i noticed that one of the Buds on the Power plant and also on one of the cheeses had a fluffy like spiderweb on it ( i know 100% its not spidermites) and when i looked closer the bud had started to rot out the inside i removed the entire branch on both, got my room up and running again had a proper clean out of the room flushed out the plants with a low dose RIPEN mix.

To control the humidity problems my new dehumidifier is on 24 hours a day and holds humidity levels at 35%-40% i know this is a little low but i am trying to keep a DRY environment at the minute due to the MOULD, the temps are around 26-28 degrees.

The double big bud has seriously been affected by heat stress has continued growing a dark purple colour and all the budsites are vvery small but super super dense.

to be honest there not looking very happy at the minute as im sure you can all imagine, i will give them as much time as i possibly can, but still very positive might just take a bit of time.

STAY POSITIVE ALL

That doesn't sound low to me at all. I had bud rot once. That's when I learned about humidity.
My RH was stupid low for a couple months, but our snow has been melting like crazy and my room is quickly hitting the high 40%'s. I bought a dehumidifier today. 70pint and I can hook it to a hose to drain.

It sounds like you handled all those obstacles pretty well to me.

Btw, my one experience with bud rot also made me prefer phenos that produce more, smaller, denser, buds than the giant football sized ones.
