Week 10: Mold Warfare & Rainy Woes
Update: 28.07.2025 | Day 79
Tough news first: Constant rain, humidity never drops below 60% - full-blown mold weather. Yesterday spotted first mold outbreaks. Cut immediately: 1 budsite on Forbidden Runtz, 2 on Green Crack. Damage contained for now thanks to eagle-eyed inspection. Daily mold patrols intensified.
Strain Status in the Rain:
Forbidden Runtz
- Foxtailing worsens (humidity culprit?)
- Trichomes mostly cloudy - 1 week to harvest target
- Considering partial harvest: Biggest buds first, smaller ones risk mold
- Beautiful purple hues emerging (ironically makes mold spotting harder)
- Smell remains fantastic
Green Crack
- Fully sugarcoated but mold hit her hardest
- Yield estimate: ~50g if no more mold
- Trichomes: Cloudy but zero amber - needs 7+ days
- Critical need: Airflow around thickest buds
Bruce Banner
- No mold yet (thank you sativa genes!)
- Buds still swelling daily - stay vigilant
- Resin production finally ramping up
- Pistils showing vibrant colors
- Mild aroma developing
- Timeline: Minimum 2 more weeks
Survival Protocol:
- Daily inspections: Flashlight checks inside every bud
- Immediate surgery: Sterilized scissors ready 24/7
- Yellow leaf purge: Remove wilted leaves instantly (mold incubators)
Hoping your skies are sunnier than ours, Catch y'all next week.
