started grow question 5y ago
Start of bud rot maybe? Only brown ish spot on the entire plant. Looks like it's just on the one vein coming from the bud. All other spots are green.

Potential bud rot?
My critical cure has some of the smaller leaves near and in the buds which are starting to turn rusty brown. Is this a starting sign of bud rot? Should I cut them early? I do not see anything abnormal under the microscope or when separating the large buds by hand. Thanks!

Mouldy, webbed buds
The humidity was too high when I went away and now my buds are mouldy. Obviously I’m heart broken (mainly at my own stupidity because I should know better!) and I wondered if there was anything I can do to recover some of the crop. Can I wash? spray? Dry out…basically anything?!?

Could this be mildew?
Hi all, I've been stressing out about high humidity levels in my tent, and a chemical smell when I smell my fingers after running them through the buds. Could this be mildew? Or just very frosty buds? On the microscope I see thin "hairs", but looks like undeveloped trichomes...

Small bud rot - Harvest or finish off? 9 weeks into flower
I've had to cut about a 1 inch section off the top of one of my colas due to what appears to be rot. I've checked the rest of the plant and can't see anywhere else that has been effected. Should I harvest now to be on the safe side or let it finish up?

Slimey/Webby parts of the flower? Looks like rot or mold?
I removed the infected parts of the plant and defoliated the fan leaves around the sites to help with aeration. Did she go past her prime and now she is dying? Or just because of high humidity in the air?

Should I keep this deformed bud or cut it off? The humidity is high, and the sugar leaves are layered on top of each other. I'm a bit worried about potential mold. Any advice would be appreciated!

Beginning of Budrot
Is this the beginning of budrot or just the plant using the leafs (sugarleaf actually) as nutrients? I'm in the final week and in 2 days this leaf starts turning yellow on the bud. Bit worried. I cant pull the leaf out and bud looks fine but still worried
