Buds are really starting to fatten up and the scent is getting a little stronger. #1 is definitely looking much greener and healthier all around. Only issue was one morning one of the larger colas started exhibiting signs of bud rot or something (see photos). It was just affecting the very tip of the cola so it was removed and the area was cleaned of all bad looking bud/leaf. Haven't ran into this issue before while still growing (only seen after harvest when too humid and hot) but the one cola started looking a little discolored and the leaves were getting really yellow/brown and moist/rotten feeling. It has been a few days since removing this affected area and things seem to be alright elsewhere on the plant and no signs of this anywhere else. When cutting that affected part of bud off the plant, despite being not the best it still had a very pungent fruity aroma which was nice. Hopefully this emerges more in the next week or two before harvest #2 is still going strong and has been very resilient to any issues. Not too much changing other than the buds fattening up a little more and lots of frost coming in on all the buds. The bigger main colas are rather thick and seem pretty dense. When checking trichomes of each, very few amber trichomes are starting to emerge but it is predominantly milky now with a decent chunk of them clear still. Seems more and more clear and less milky each time they are checked. Slowly observing more amber each time but really only a few here and there not enough to harvest yet. When checking the trichomes, the buds are very sticky!! Planning to harvest in the next week or 2 once almost all the clear trichomes become milky and there are a few more amber ones observed. Praying no more issues with the bud but at least it's good to know that there is a good percentage of milky trichomes if it has to be chopped in an emergency so it should at least be mature enough to produce something. Just set up the drying tent but having trouble getting it below 70F. Only portable AC units seen are $500+ so really not looking to spend that. Any other ideas would be greatly appreciated. How do you guys get your rooms down in the 60s or as close to 60 as possible for drying? Getting the 55%-60% humidity will be no issue. These next few weeks are going to drag out probably lol too excited!

@CannabisFarmerGuyDude, nice really appreciate you. I think thats agood plan for now and for the next run 💚 Big up brother

@BudBoutique, Thanks man, I'll give a follow back! Yeah I agree, I think some jar time will help for sure. By the time the next run is finished I should have a better way to control the drying environment. Gonna dry the next run in the grow room which has a controller and is easier to regulate temp and humidity. Soooo stoked for these Big Body Gelati from Covert! You too bud, smoke up!

@CannabisFarmerGuyDude, appreciate your long answer bro. Yeah im same not always exactly 60/60 but just curing them a few more weeks make them more better. Just get them darkness and low temp and burp as usual. And trust me 4-8 weeks make a huge difference even though its not easy to keep hands away haha have a super stoney weekend buddy - will follow u straight :)

Rather, do you have a root blockage problem, probably due to a pH imbalance in the soil... have you checked?
CannabisFarmerGuyDude

@Seedsman, oh definitely familiar with pH and absorption rates, but since I am avoiding sulfate based, soluble, ionic, fertilizers/nutrients and didn't provide them with adequate container size or high quality soil (just in Roots Organic), I don't think there is much that can be changed this late in the cycle unless I want to introduce some bottled solution. Had they been in say at least 15 gallon or preferably 30 gallon containers, with a compost based complete soil that provided the plants everything they could need for the entire cycle and more, the effects of slightly too alkaline water would probably be negligible. Next run is already set up for this so all these issues should be avoided next time!

@CannabisFarmerGuyDude, that sound a bit high... ideal would be under 7.0 Have you read any table of absorption of elements depending on Ph? It would be good for you to see the optimal ranges, there are many on Google if you haven't done so. 🙏

@Seedsman, was able to get a pH off the runoff this morning. Was reading 7.6 so while a little more basic than ideal, that wouldn't cause too many issues would it?

Nice work sorry about your issues with bud rot, buds looking so dense, wish you nothing more than good until harvest!! 🙌

@Seedsman, Thank you! It has been eradicated, thankfully it was less severe than initially expected. Only lost a few pieces of a couple colas but saved the rest. Did a massive defoliation and inspection right after this last post so the last week or so should go smooth. Also was able to move them to the new grow room so the humidity and temp are a lot easier to manage. Have humidity sitting around 40-45% now and temp consistently around 75-77F which is a lot better and should prevent any new issues from coming up the last week or two. The buds that are remaining are really dense and frosty!! Can't wait to try it!
