Bud rot opinion/chance

Manic
Manicstarted grow question 5 years ago
4 weeks into flowering the highest my humidity has reached 60 percent when it rains where I am located, when it doesn't rain it's at 48 percent. I know it should stay between 40 to 50 percent. My question is if my humidity hits up to 60 percent, chance of bud rot is what?

60% RH is not that bad tbh you just need to have proper ventilation and air circulation between the buds. So put your fans blowing in the canopy but not too strong so it wont damage them. (You can also direct the fan on the wall if it feels too strong to face the plants. Bud rot and any other mold stuff likes cold temps so during night it is more important to control the humidity but still shouldn't worry if basic stuff is okay in your tent 👌🏿

60% is a bit high but with enough exhaust air and 2-3 fans this is ok because the fruit air is distributed and does not stop otherwise there are problems :-)

Hello.. Hope you are well.. Yes unfortunately the higher the humidity the more chance of botrysis(bud root) kicking in.. Ur best option is to try and pull out the air in tent but if ur own air has high misture its tough.. keep a fan breeze on her to allow her to dry easier.. Buy sum cheap dehumidifier sachets(the type made for caravans) from ur local store.. These do actually work but u mite need a couple..its a quick but simple method!!.. Stay safe n gud luck.. 👍🍀

I think anywhere between 40 and 60 is fine, I experienced bud rot last fall with colder temps and saturated leaves with an outdoor grow. My grow tent currently hovers around 50-60 and a bit less when the soil dries out. I think as long as you have descent ventilation for your grow you should be fine. Good luck on your harvest!

just like the area im living in.no chance as long as you have a fan blowing air through your plants.60 is not a big deal.keep the fan on at night
