Heeey all! Sorry for the huge amount of photos but this week was crazy. So many things happened and my lack of knowledge clearly showed up. I ended stressing one of my plants for no reason! ๐Ÿ˜ฑ At the start of the week everything was normal until I noticed that one of Roko's buds looked weird. It seemed to be too dry and orange for my tastes and I didn't know what it was. Obviously I started to ask around and I got so many mixed messages haha. Some people said it was nothing and I should not worry about it and others said they were 100% sure it was botrytis or budrot... aaaaaaaand I got paranoid lol. ๐Ÿ˜ต๐Ÿ˜จ At first I tried to keep calm and ignore it for one day but the next one the bud looked even worse and that's when I feared the worst. What if it's really budrot? In general the values I write in here are approximates or an average of the week.. and usually my tent never goes over 60% of RH (in the dark it stays between 50% to 60% when I water them and on some rare occasions it reaches 65%). This time, after I checked the thermometer it said "75% of RH" but I did not know if it was during their sleep time or maybe some time after the lights went on) so once again I feared the worst! What if the plants stayed all the night with that amount of RH? Was that enough time for them to develop budrot? What if it's still nothing? Yikes. ๐Ÿ˜ญ I had to do something and I did, I wasn't going to risk everything! I started removing the worst looking leaf to see if there was anything mushy or ugly between it and the pistils but I didn't see anything (maybe I was safe and that was something else? Or maybe the budrot was even deeper and I could not see it?) After reading I realized that the best idea was to cut the bud in half and then slice it to "see" if there was anything inside... so I did it and absolutely nothing showed up ๐Ÿ˜–! Those were good news! Sadly tho the poor plant had to go thru some stress after cutting that bud in half (at least from what I saw the insides were tightly packed and the photos showed some really cool stuff) The rest of the week was uneventful (compared to what I feared haha) and some leaves started to change even more in color (I love it). I think I'll start with the flush next week or the one after that one. There are some amber trichomes...! Thanks all for checking my diary! Hopefully you'll all find the pictures interesting! PD: None of the plants have seeds in them, even when one of the sliced buds seemed to be making them!

My tent is 80 x 80cm (2.6 x 2.6~) and I'm growing 4 plants. 3 are main-lined and are at 4 colas in this moment, should I go for 8 colas or stick with 4 and avoid overcrowding the tent?

Go for it and I would advice you to hang a scrog net over the plants in a few weeks to fill out the grow space even more evenly. In flowering time you have to watch out for mold because if canopy is so full aircirculation is pretty important, so Defoliation and fans are required. Good luck. โœŒ๏ธ๐Ÿป๐ŸŒฑ

BigBadLionstarted grow question 5 years ago
My plants have a dense foliage and some branches are outgrowing the main colas. I've been tucking the fan leaves around and I tried to gently push the branches to the sides but I think that might not be enough. What can I do to fix both things without stressing them too much? ๐Ÿ˜ต

Hi @BigBadLion! Nice plants in here! I also went through this kind of issue, and ended up putting a scrog-net above my canopy, in order to open up everything and increase light penetration. However this will work only if you have enough space left. That being said, from my experience with RQS, their strains seem really strong, I do believe you can remove most of the leaves without stressing the plants too much, that's what I did with my last OGKush run, because I had no other choice buds were hidden in shades, this didn't stop the plant from building big dense colas. Hope this will help, keep us updated and happy growing! ๐Ÿ‘Š

I'd like to know what happened to my plant but I'm unsure how to properly describe it. The photos in my diary should be able to make it more clean (W18). Maybe it was botrytis but I caught it on time? Or maybe something else? The trichomes got dark orange where all this happened!

Ive seen similar things in my grow normally where I've cut a stem out last off and left a bit of cut a bit off to test smoke. Sometimes you get them around the lower buds or smaller ones that have been attached to a bigger bud above them if you know what I mean. I guess it could be down to air flow or heat? Or lack of fresh air or co2? Or just stress or damaged plants?

@LongJohn420, I was just checking that journal but it seems it wouldn't be wise to super crop now, as I'm already in flower and the best moment is before that! ๐Ÿ˜ญ

@Stick, I thought about fixing my old SCroG, but I think it'll be a huge hassle haha. So far tho I'm leaning to defoliate a little everyday!
Stick
Stickcommented5 years ago
@BigBadLion, maybe you can go DIY and arrange you old scrog net? Very good idea to defoliate step by step, my bet is that you won't notice any difference, only better light penetration! ๐Ÿ‘‹
BigBadLion
BigBadLioncommented5 years ago
@Stick, Hi man! Thanks for your words! I already have a SCroG but the size of the squares are just way too big for the amount of stems I have, so I need to buy a new net (and find one too ๐Ÿ˜–) I also want to try removing something like 10 leaves per day from each plant and see how they develop!

@BigBadLion, the earlier videos have so much plant movement, it's really quite beautiful. The later ones are good for contrast, however, with how still everything is you would have to be good at judging when to water by weight or other means.

If any drops fell on week 16 or 17 when your ec was accidentally way to high that could of fried the leaf and possibly kick of some type of mould growth

Holy shit mate. Your diary is a roller-coaster to me because I'm 2 weeks behind you and my plants develop in a very similar way to yours. Orange on the leaves looks like a bud rot to me. How does it look like under the microscope? Does it look like mold? If it were me, I'd cut the whole cola just to be safe.

@ThatsNotMe, Hi man! I double checked (can be seen in the photos) and it didn't look like budrot! The insides were perfect! :O I'm still curious what it could be?
