I lost most of my outdoor grow last summer to bud rot ---

could I buy myself some time by washing the plant it its pot? Then blowing it off with a fan and a bit of sun? As well as I was only able to get a 150ml 6% hydrogen peroxide. they only had that one bottle. Could that do if so how? ---

I would take it down wash just like in video After removing and effected areas of the flower of course He also explains how to dry using a fan but that only for a few hours fir excess water from washing Once washed Hang in a dark room with a fan to move air around in room do not blow air directly on buds Ideally you want humidity in 55-60% range Hang 7-10 day until stems snap not bend Then trim to liking and put in mason jars with lids Burp jars twice a day for 20 min ea This will allow buds to off gas the chloroform and other gases that are ng at this time you want to check buds for any molding Do this for first two weeks after that Burp one a day for 2 more weeks Humidity in jars should stay around 55-60% ifeally Longer cure times better taste you can sample the bud once dry flavors and high will not be a highest potential tho As I mentioned i lost a whole outdoor grow cashing the mold removing bad buds and what not i cases it so long i lost 80% of the grow hardly worth my effort Sorry but I personally would cut my losses and do as described above @Candygrowja ---

I am seeing some sines of bud rot on another plant. as well as I’m trying to see how close I am or how fare past harvest I am because I don’t know. I want to know so I know if I should expect a couchlock or active high. ![IMG_0962](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/3X/d/d/dd9cef919c60d7d729332e91d6baeb2cd149a659.jpg) Lower buds 👇🏾 ![IMG_0964](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/3X/4/e/4e7954f893d852120aac375a42930b3ed6beeac5.jpg) Attempting to see the heads 👇🏾😤 ![IMG_0940](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/3X/1/2/12c5b94d3c16cc6e0164bcf2451704aee43f6935.jpg) ![IMG_0938](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/3X/f/2/f2f01bb47cdbdd4e67d32e9d88e399a74a4de80c.jpg) Film days X8 converter is what I took the Micro-ish pics with. ![IMG_0960](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/3X/8/2/82f414f76cb3269e6ca2529777f00b5a2095e79a.jpg) ---

I’m not sure what the white tarp is for, but it’s most likely restricting airflow without proper airflow you will always have that issue. If you attempt to reveg, you will need better airflow… ---

I did not have enough air flow. I was trying to keep it hidden but still, provide bounce light from the sun. I pulled it all down and I have not had that problem.
