Attack!!
Anyone know what this is?? Bugs? That white stuff? If you look close at the 1st pic you can see some white spots on it.
This happened over the last few days, I was looking at it over the weekend and it was fine. Its interesting how it only got one bud, I wonder what its plans are for the others! Maybe I should pick this now and cut my losses.
Definitely don't smoke that brown bud. The mold spores are microscopic even if it doesn't look like its rotten it could have fungi spores all over it.
If you're going to keep it, best advice is to water cure the rest first you must dip into H2O2 to kill the fungi.
Otherwise I would throw away.
Like @goarilla said that can cause some nasty health problems, smoked some myself when I was a teen I was throwing up bile for a week 😥
I would not smoke that. Throw away whole cola and other colas in circle. You have only one life and health. Bud rot is dangerous, also spores can be everywhere if you have fans blowing on them.
John cut it down whatever is not affected you can keep in Smoke. Clean everything with bleach. Don't let it touch anything. It spreads through spores the travel through the air. Cut your losses and get rid of the whole plant.
I'm really sorry to see that happen to you bro 👊👊
I'm probably too late maybe you already got rid of it.
Why don't you go take a look at growweedeasy.com a lot of useful information there. Nebula is awesome❗ if you haven't already go check it out..
Like I said I'm really sorry to see that happen. Guaranteed it's bud rot..... you can save the non affected buds. Hey man good luck I feel for you..so sad.... but hang in there dude... what doesn't kill you will make you stronger... welcome to the learning curve.... I believe it just took a right turn on you..
Good Luck 👊👊
Mealy bugs by looks of it leave a white residue after they eat the thc and all nutrients out of leaves and buds. Spray soil with neem oil to kill eggs and get some organic pesticide to do the rest of plant cut that bud off and get rid they will soon spread. I lost a lot on a outdoor crop due to these. Can be hard to get rid of.
I say let it ride.. it's still got time.. But it's really up to you.
Its just a weed it will be fine. And I can guarantee 99% of everyone that smokes weed has at one time or another smoked a bug ...so let her ride and let's see what happens. Good Luck bro ❗
@JohnCH, It can go as fast as a few hours. I check my blooming plants a few times each day and cut off anything remotely resembling bud rot. A good give away for early mold is if your bud leaves break when you pull them towards you. Some strains are more susceptible to mold (Critical) while other are more resistant. Smoking infected buds can cause pulmonary sensitivity diseases (COPD, ...). Which are sort of like ... perpetual asthma.
@Tonino,Hmm, bud rot? I never thought of that - I guess it has been massively humid out lately. How long does it take for bud rot to set in? Its got to be less than 4 days because this looked fine then.
@BigDaddyK, I tried to wash and rub it off but I wound up tearing the leaf off. Its very strange, but it hasn't spread so no harm no foul I suppose ... of course not so sure I'd smoke it!
It doesn't look ready at all, and I would wait until more brown hairs show up, and the white ones start to fade down instead of sticking out. Checking trichomes can be misleading sometimes, better to make a call based on more than just trichomes.
Hello there! id suggest a large pot the size of a Bear hug ( as big as your arms are in a circle) transplant in clean soil than a nice brew of Kronic T ( Comfrey Plant steeped in water over a few nights) water your baby with this the nutrients are NPK 1.8-0.5-5.3 with calcium and magnesium. This kind of brew stays in your soil for a long time and also will be great with your bloom juices. Just one jug of brew would do, it would bring your girl back to health in no time. Peace an Happy growing!
