Rott/mold ? In the tops



Lost most of my tops. Is this from to much humidity? I don’t see any on the lowers. Any help is appreciated.

Yes. It gets trapped in there and never dries out. Everyone mostly, is fighting it outdoors this season.

Yes it is one way for mold to get a hold, bugs and bug poop is another. Mine mainly hits from humidity, ( outdoors)

So sorry to hear this. I’ve been there. That is just heart breaking after you show them so much love and that happens. I could never imagine growing outside where I live. Our humidity is off the charts most of the time in summer. :victory_hand:t3::blush:

It can happen indoors but you have better environment control. Just watch the humidity in there. Really want to keep it below 65 in flower. I had trouble with mold indoors last grow. Seems switching to autopots helped.

Get what rot you can find gone add a lil more air flow, but beware fans may move more spores around :crossed_fingers: for you it sux bad.

Sometimes you can get away with a little higher humidity if you have good air movement. Do you have an oscillating fan on them?

Needs more circulation fans and closer. Fan seems to point to ceiling. I bet those Cobs get hot. Maybe you could cover the intake vents with a cuttable MERV filter fabric to help filter airborne contams from entering.

Cobs definitely get hot, im vertically challenged, the fan is hitting the tops and the light

You still need airflow through the plants. Movement of air so possible contams keep on constant move and don’t settle. Air flow is how you combat mold.

Edit: for next grow. not much help currently being infected. Just spreads the spores around.

Strongly suggest a peroxide bud wash on any saved flower.
