12/12 Day 49

Folks every where are having PM issues, even over the pond people have been getting PM. I think it might be the high humidity because of air has been much cooler, as the cooler air carried more moisture. Anyways the PM really sucks, PM struck everyone pretty hard just in time for my first grow, fuck it gotta deal with it.

Anyways If the PM is far from the bud on a fan leaf, just a tiny spot, how bad is this. I am in the last week or so on the OG and I am cutting off any leaves with PM.

After adding a shit load of fans, I only spot it on a like two three four fan leaves and I remove those.

Do you recon I will make it another week like this.

At the moment I am almost all cloudy and in another weeks I should have all cloudy and some amber, I just taking a guess. I wanna chop the OG on Day 56 (8 weeks), at the moment I am on Day 49. Since OG seems to be the one that is effected by the PM most I really wanna just chop it by 8 weeks, I tested a little unflushed, uncured, 2 day dried bud, the taste was bad but it was potent no doubt.

I will have to dry the OG in the cardbox since it will be getting chopped before the gold so do you think I will be OK if I add a little air pump with a timer in a cardboard to pump out the wet air periodically. How about putting a pack of baking soda to absorb the moisture in the cardboard box as well.

GHS took their HG to ten weeks so since I don't have any mildew issue with HG I want to go all the way to about 70 days. HG still has a lot more to put on.

No new bananas showing up on HG, at least none that I can see. But I know these fucking bananas can hide real well.

Hey buddy, Can you hang your buds somwhere that is warmer? Like mid 70's. I mean if you have a hot water heater closet or somwhere else that you could set up some fans and keep the temps up. If you have any mold on them when you hang them, that shit can spread fast if there isn't some airflow or a lot of humidity. I mention the hot water heater room, because that is where I am thinking of hanging mine. I am going to use a booster fan for exhaust and a oscilating fan to circulate the air. I know the idea is not to dry them too fast, but with pm issues now, I wouldn't take any chances.

PM does not spread when you chop the plant - its not the same as mold or bud mold... it doesn't die though the spores are very prolific and can survive composting - so you need to sterilize everything in your grow room...

you could last another week as long as your plants stay healthy and your humidity stays low...

did you manage to get any green cure?

OK, good to know I can last another week, I am keeping the humidity as low as I can.

I ordered it from a local shop and still haven't gotten it, I just have just ordered it directly from some online company.

I still wouldnt dry your weed in a box though.

What a relief to know that it wont spread, thank you bro again for giving me you input.

I don't know where to dry, as the flowering room will be busy with HG, what would you do instead of a box. Also may I ask why you don't like the box, I see a lot of folks drying in boxes.

Interesting, so what happens if some hidden spores are on a dried bud that gets jarred for curing? Do all the buds in the jar get ruined? :nerd

pm sux and all you can do is carefully inspect all your shit as your trimming - if I even suspect it to be on a bud that bud gets tossed - but like I said it doesnt spread once the plant is cut down and dead...

I tried the OG for the first time today.

I accidentally broke some little nugs two day ago from the OG, they quick dried in a box for 2 days, and about 12 hours of cure.

I was blown away on its potency. Even if I took everything of today I would be happy, especially because what I smoked was a dinky piece from the bottom but still bomb as hell. Guys I am very happy as this is the first time I have blown my home grown.

Thx fo the confirmation as I cut out a very small patch from a huge cola in my 2nd grow and luckily the buds that were cured with it remained PM free...

HT, make sur those huge HG colas are cut from the stem when jarring after drying cuz IMHO it seems like that made my cured buds too dry in the jars from my previous 2 grows...:rasta: I can't wait to try out Round 3! :D
