GrowBeforeHoestarted grow question 6 years ago
Do you have any recommendable tips against bud rot because I'm afraid to see all my buds moldy . All the rain which might be starting in September and October are one of my biggest issues.
Thanks in advance!

The only working tip is building a roof (transparent)so that the rain dont reaches the flowers. thats the only practicable thing. before flowering rhe rain doe not do any harm. and yes its strain related . the denser the plant grows the higher is the risk of moldering. Most time i have to harvest 4 weeks before the end of dlower because of the rain that takes days. The only thing that helped me buiding a roof against direct rain. happy growing

basically bud rot is strain dependent, some are better against some diseases some are better at other diseases. you're trying to keep the sun and the air in contact with the bud which is a good way for the environment to help the plant fight the rot. So defoliation is a yes, air circulation is a yes, keeping the buds not so humid is a yes. Basically, you make the buds a house to live in at night if you're brave and have the time. (no need for walls just a roof. otherwise you can try to take care of them, but be careful because if they are hurt they will actually be more vulnerable. anyway man, good luck - strong start !

It's winter here and been a real cold one and I'm growing in a outdoor tin shed. Will dry in the same. There are 3 warmer days expected this week around 18c (65f)., Should I harvest early by up to 5 days or chance drying in at temps under 10c?. Will I get moldy buds?Week 9

Digging holes for planting and found white matter in soil How can you handle a mold/fungus at that level and would it be safe? Otherwise what size fabric pots should I get for the best outdoor results for a grow lasting over a summer for harvest in late Sept.

Ok so this may seem like a weird question but some of my colas look impossibly frosty. Like its caked on the buds. Is it possible I could have tons of mould that look like frost? I guess I could scope them. What does mold look like under scope never had it.Week 9

Dark period humidity at 70RH. I have a Vornado Flippi V8 oscillating fan from underneath the canopy, two 3" computer fans blowing at the tops, and the 6"terra bloom exhaust fan/makeshift carbon filter. My hometown has a 90% RH. Will the circulation prevent budrot from experience?Week 5
