Well there's good news, and there's bad news. First the bad, I had some bud rot. 2 tops were affected by the rot, so I chopped her down last night and trimmed everything up and tossed what I could identify as rot. I had to break 2 buds open to confirm. So I think I caught it fairy early. Good news is I was only 5 days away from my intended harvest and trichs were starting to get some amber anyway so it's not too early. I've never had to deal with rot before and I'm fairly certain it's because I didn't raise my fan to be blowing directly over the tops. I posted a picture of it, if someone here has dealt with rot can you confirm that is indeed what that is?

Shame about the bud rot, but I think you got to it in time. Hope you don't find any after drying/curing. Impressive looking plant none the less :). I usually get some bud rot in my outdoor plants, it generally has to do with high humidity and a lack of air movement. When I get it in my outdoor plants it's always the ones that are against the wall. The humidity can get much higher in unventilated corners because nearly-ripe, fat buds sweat quite a lot. Were all the rotten buds along the sides?

@SpliffSeeds, It is a shame. I've grown my own vegetables and some fruit for about 6 years prior to moving here, cannabis for 4 years. inevitably at some point, you lose some of your harvests. Can't be perfect all the time, so I'm not too bummed about it. The rotten buds were actually pretty central of the plant. Which would explain why they wouldn't have gotten much airflow, considering I didn't raise the fan like I should have. These were by far the fattest buds I've grown. I separated out the 2 branches that had the rotten buds to dry separately from the ones that looked fine. Hoping that if I did miss anything the infection would be isolated.

Those buds look awesome... πŸ‘Œ

@rdrunner, Matter of fact, I had an Ultraviolet auto from Samsara that I grew a while back I got about 30 or so grams from it if I remember correctly. It wasn't the most potent flower I have ever had but it was one of the most lifting and euphoric smokes I've experienced.

@SekretSquirrel47, What surprised me most was the fact that it actually works ;) I am not waiting to curing end right now but errrrrm... try to understand the different stages of the curing process... :D

@rdrunner, I saw that, 30g isn't bad for a first time-go on a 5 week strain under a small light.

I haven't had it but after down BG a little research and comparing pictures I think you may be right. There is some clear brown discoloration but it appears very light and in the earliest stage. I think if you got rid of it fast enough the rest of the harvest should be alright.
SekretSquirrel47

@Grimbol, agreed, I peeled all the tops back a bit so I could see down into the stems and they all look fine. Everything seems to agree with rot for those 2 buds: rust colored, mushy, crumbly, under 50% RH, I don't think my tent ever got above 48% during flower. Just hope I didn't miss anything during my inspection.

Wow nice one , πŸ‘ You filled it in πŸ‘ 2 litres of water , and 1-2 ppm , per day , is that correct ?
SekretSquirrel47
SekretSquirrel47
@BigDaddyK, My PPM at the top is correct, but the ML for each nutrient is not correct. I only use ratios and honestly, I don't keep track of how many ML of nutrient I put into my res. Lets say for week one and two GH recommends 2.5ml of each Flora Gro/Micro/Bloom. So a 1:1:1 ratio for each nutrient. I will add 2ml of each nutrient per gal of water for the first 2 weeks. Every day I will add back 0ppm water and take a reading, and see what my plant has used. I will add back that ppm to replace what it has used, then I will add that same PPM back again to double it. Maintaining the 1:1:1 ratio. It sounds more complicated than it is. Also Depending how the plant looks, I will alter the ratio, so if she looks low on Nitrogen I will alter the ratio to be 2:1:1 Gro/Micro/Bloom but still try to hit my target PPM. Hydroguard, Silica, Calcium, and Bud Candy are just extras that I only add during reservoir changes. If I skip a res change I will add half-strength Hydroguard, Calcium, and Bud Candy skipping the Silica. Hopefully, that makes sense?

Nice looking blue berry bush! Keep up the good work, always nice to see one of our strains being grown this well. Very curious about the yield, also how's the smell so far?
SekretSquirrel47
SekretSquirrel47
@SpliffSeeds, Thanks she's been a blast to grow so far. As far as the smell goes, I've had a hard time putting a finger on it, it's a very sweet floral artificial blueberry smell. Like a blueberry rose cotton candy would be the best way to describe it.

I'm glad to hear that! Haha that sounds about right, I love how sweet she gets towards the end!
SekretSquirrel47
SekretSquirrel47
@SpliffSeeds, She definitely smells sweet. Took her out of the tent yesterday to open up the canopy a bit in the middle, The whole place smelled like it in a matter of minutes. I have a 440cfm fan and scrubber so I hadn't smelled her in her full glory until yesterday.

I've had a good look through this diary it's a shame you didn't fill all the weeks as personally I'd love to see how/when you taped the branches , it's an expert grow . πŸ‘ Is it a 600w in cooltube ?

@BigDaddyK, I'm thinking about switching to LED, it's about time to replace the bulbs that I have anyway. Sounds like a good excuse to spend money. lol

@SekretSquirrel47,if you want next step up its 315w Phillips daylight 😎

@BigDaddyK, Thank you, I found this site 3 weeks from Harvest. I can try to go back and fill in the weeks as best as possible but it probably wouldn't be perfect. I will try to do that though. I'm using a 400w cooltube. Metal Halide for the first 4 weeks,

Also you got there let's say 13 weeks , that's only two more than autos , smoke is definitely stronger from feminised ...

@BigDaddyK, This is actually my first fem seed I've grown. All my past plants have been reg, I would pop 10 seeds at a time in 1 gal pots of soil, take clones throw them in 12/12 to see bud structure and sex, then make my selections and keep the rest for moms and potential pops. Took a lot longer that's for sure. oh and a couple autos.

One question what do you tie the branches down to? I have dwc and I can't figure what to tie to 😩
SekretSquirrel47
SekretSquirrel47
@BigDaddyK, I had a bunch of orange yarn left over from a PVC scrog net I made in the past and a bunch of scotch packing tape. So I've just be using those, tying the branches down and taping to the lid. I think on my next grow, I'm going to tap a bunch of little eye screws into the lid and use pipe cleaners. Unless I can think of something easier than that. Maybe a handful of those 3m tape backed hooks you can find at hardware stores for pretty cheap.
