4inch PVC Aero/NFT 4x5 SCROG - 1200 Watts

Re: 4inch PVC Aero/NFT 4x5 SCROG (1200 Watts)

Hey everyone,

I hope all is well.

I went and checked on the outdoor plants today. Both are showing a very small bit of bud rot/mold on the smaller/lower branches. The tops look to be in fine shape. I removed what I saw and took a couple of the smaller branches that had an infestation. I cleaned them up and I'm going to sample them.

I'm seeing more and more cloudy/amber trichs. They need 3 more weeks but I'm wondering/hoping that I can keep them going until then without seeing the rot spread. I'll be watching them closely and I'll take them if it gets worse/starts to spread. I'll check them again in 5 days and if it rains I'll pull them for sure.

The bud porn is getting better and better.

About things like that i could tell, it wont go- off easy as mold it makes spore millions of them, for germination it need humidyti+food[this way sugar in bud of mary-j]...so on next flowering i can bet you will see more of them on allmost same period when buds getting sugared or so...So my advice after this grow put all stuff out of this room and buy anti-mold spray that spray kill them pertty good and also spores of them so if instructions says keep spraying every day each day once...one week,do it twice ..for be sure...
On mary jane growing this is rare ...when you are growing mushrooms this isnt rare at-all i'm also growing mushrooms and i can tell those molds are g*ys its very hard to kill them for 100% ...anyway good luck!

The mold is on the outdoor plants, not the indoor. :)

I've found a place that's really close to where I live that will make for a nice little plot. I haven't taken a reallllly close look but tomorrow I'm going to go dig some holes for next year and I'll take my cam along.

I'm going to dig 5-20 holes at this location depending on how it looks when I get in there.

The forecast is predicting rain to start on Sunday(20th) and last for 6 straight days through next Friday. Considering the fact that I'm already dealing with mold, I think that if they go through a week long soak that all will be lost but they aren't really ready to come down.

The sample I took does the job but I know that it can be soooo much better. There are cloudy and amber trichs but they aren't really ready. Every day counts at this point and I want to wait as long as I can.

Here's the way I have things figured; I can see the stretch starting in the July 19th pictures. The first pics containing obvious bud sites are on August 12th. These pictures mirror pics taken of this same strain indoors at 3 weeks of flowering. September the 12th made 7 weeks, and tomorrow will make 8 weeks. I know it's hard to translate indoor flowering times to outdoor because the length of day shortens therefore increasing the speed of which the plant flowers so the outdoor plants 'pick up steam' so to speak as the process goes along. This strain usually finishes at 9 weeks indoors in soil for me. I could let them go to 70 days though.

Now my dilemma: Do I leave it and hope that they survive a weeks rain(or maybe that the rain won't even come)in hopes for a FINISHED product or do I chop tonight and make sure I get a few ounces of mid-grade product?

I don't want to chop tomorrow night because it's a Saturday (more police, etc).....so here I sit.

What do you guys think?

You know I am new but in my opinion and take it with a grain of salt or a bong hit what ever you prefer. I would much rather have two ounces of great bud than 10 ounces of mediocre pot I could pick up anywhere. Especially if I where you with the buds you have already grown it would be pretty hard to get used to sub-par smoke. I would go out before the rain get as much pm off the plants as possible and roll the dice. Just my opinion and hard decision for you for sure. Good luck.

I don't know ... How about a full size tent with a hole in the bottom and you go camping during the last few days. The plant could be contained inside the tent sheltering it from the rain buying you the final few days to finish.

I wish bro. I can't do that.

Here's the sample I took 2 days ago. It's been hanging and is smokable. I just tried it in the bong. I'm probably going to chop it tonight.
