Mold in my early flowering?

Accidental_Grower84started grow question 4 years ago

I just inspected my plant and noticed some grey/darker areas in my buds, I cannot understand if it's due to the purple stem or it's just pure mold. What do you guys think? Is this Botrytis?

Hi mate, to be honest I can't really see any bud rot but it may be a good idea to defoliate a little or turn up your circulating fan speed to keep air moving. Bring your RH down to about 45%. I've lost two grow through bud rot and its heart wrenching. If you see any Botrytis, i think milky water wash works on affected areas. I hope this helps, good luck

Organic growers: question about mold First picture includes both molds. Second picture is the 'spider-web' mold. (Good mold, correct?) Third picture is the unknown mold. (Is this good or bad mold?) The red wrigglers living in the soil eat mold, but can/should they eat the second mold? Should it be removed?

Fear of mold Are these signs of mold? The humidity here is very high, the fan is on, but it's complicated. I see no signs of powdery mildew. But could it be some other type of fungus?

Help, what are those weird yellow spots in late veg?Hello everybody, I've checked in on my plant after I was away from home for 2 day. Now I come back to see these ugly yellow spots? During day 23°C / 55% humid. During night 18°C / 50% humid. Checked the whole bud, but no insects. My other ideas are mold or stress from the light?

Is this still good or is it ruined?Hung plants to dry and waited for stems to snap, unfortunately when I checked the buds were so crispy they basically crumbles in my hands. I heard this could be mold/rot also. Did I mess up and over dry my buds, or is this something much more awful? Is this still salvageable?

Fungus on plant I know where it comes from... I was too stingy and didn't want to turn on the heating on cold rainy days- air too humid. Can I somehow save the affected bids or do I have to remove them? ( Just fan without heater I’ll have about 10*C)

PM covered plant sentenced to death - What would you do?I'm about to destroy this plant. Each branch has heavy PM despite having ample airflow. I suspect due to the lack of direct sunshine, but I'm sure it's spread to other plants which will also be destroyed. Is there anything I can do to salvage? What would you do? Thanks!

Genetics or budrot?Hi all, my Royal Jack Auto from RQS is in 7th to 8th week and on the tip of the main cola these red, brownish spots appeared. Humidity has been 50% yesterday and before 40-45%, plenty ventilation in the tent. Around 24 to 28 °C. Could this be the start of budrot or am I paranoid?
