Was only 50% ish. Getting down to 13 -14 degrees Celsius over night though.
I feel your pain. I just tossed the three main colas on my last plants. I might have to invest in a dehumidifier. Maybe I'll start topping the plants, as it seems only the main cola is whats getting it.
100% top your indoor plants. Defoliate and train them too. Worth the time.
This will not stop bud rot and unfortunately bud rot tends to get the largest cola's first, the reason this occurs is because the largest buds also have the most moisture inside of the buds so the spores will natural germinate in this location first. The best defensive option for but rot is to lower the humidity below 50 percent but be fair warned once you see bud rot you will get more regardless if you cut off the infected buds, the spores are already in the grow room. The larger commercial guys will run a UV light filter system that will kill off the spores.
Once you get bud rot you have to drop the whole crop. Topping helps prevent bud rot. Some strains just grow tops that are too big and dense and prone to rot.
You do not have to dump the whole crop but you do have to dump the portion of the crop that is infected. Topping does not stop the chances of bud rot IMO. I always top my plants and even in a sealed environment the stuff will find its way into the grow. If you have conditions like mentioned above, raining for 3 weeks the chances increase. IMO it is more environment than plant genetics.
I think he is in a tent. That's what I suggest dropping all the plants. Before they all get sick from being so close to each other.
They can be close to each other without problems in a tent, what makes a difference is the amount of air flow around the plants. You want to remove at least the bottom third of the plant growth and have some air flow down at the base of the plants and you also want to have even more air flow around the tops of the plants. Once bud rot has set it it will continue to infect more of the buds, but it already has done so and will show up on more buds in the next few days. You can increase air flow around the tops, I see very little leaf movement in the video and the second thing that can be done is to drop the humidity below 50 percent and more like 45 is even better. But again more will show bud rot regardless. Dropping is an option but I would probably run it out at least 10 more days if you can drop the humidity and increase air flow
Good advice. I know-been here before, the only thing that's gonna help is lowering rh. But, the smaller buds do stand a better chance. If and when my summer led experiment fails, I'll sterilize the room and wait till winter to do more.
2 x 4 closet. AC infinity exhaust outside. Rh has been hitting 65 with constant exhaust. I can buy a dehumidifier or portable ac if I really wanted. But I get enough in the winter it doesnt really matter. I'm just trying to do some breeding experiments with tiny plants now.
Just curious have your tried spraying your canopy with Hydrogen peroxide? What were the results?
