Taken another look and it's now sitting at 57% but I have turned the extractor down a touch just to test it.

I'm going to dry my bud for a good 10 days and then had straight up so I have 3 weeks from now to get my clones looking and trained ready for the switch to flower.

So the hydrometer is reading bad then. Glad you got er sorted. Now more bud porn please

I keep checking and it's below average so I do think it was me that caused the for by not removing a broken or dead leaf stem and then it's ended up producing moisture inside the tightness of the bud and spread outover.

One thing I will say is I don't actually think there will be a lot in terms of yield but we may be proven otherwise.

I will get some photos today

How are your grows doing?

Sounds good. I currently am growless

. Cant wait to start another soon. Might have to do a super secret grow not even my wife knows about. She hasnt been in the grow room for years anyway.

I currently have 12 seedlings, 6 begging clones and those 3 flowering plants and I'm full lol I really need a shelf in the veg tent as I'm going to grow 6 tomato plants till their around 3ft tall and then plant them outside 3ft apart from each other in a straight line and then tie the branches down to act like a vine and the great thing is my garden gets loads of sun with some shading during the day as the sun moves.

Secret grows is how I have always had to grow lol trust me I know how you feel, would be ideal of smells came after the harvest

The bud that I cleaned off that was part of the rot is partially dry, not expecting anything but see if it actually makes me stoned as I can smoke daily and not get stoned due to my tolerance on some bud that was not the greatest.

Lost another cola to rot of a poxy dead leaf stem, devastated is an understatement.

Thinking of dismantling the scrog mesh and stripping the fan leaves tomorrow.

About twenty years ago i lived in a Kentucky trailer park with my good buddy Tony T, (The same Kentucky trailer park where the toothbrush was invented), We lived the poor carpenters life, paid on Friday, broke on Monday. We grew four little plants in a cold dark closet with a 4' T12. The plants never got fed, or watered, for 3 months. I think they were surviving off of leaves and rainwater falling through holes in the roof. One day i went back to check if they were still alive and i swear one of them was eating a mouse! That clinched it! They were goin outside. So me and Tony picked them up with one plant in each arm and started running as fast a we could through a trailer park in the middle of the day with these plants! I guess we thought we were so fast we were invisible

We planted all four at the edge of a Kentucky tobacco field, on the outskirts of a trailerpark. We'd go and check on them every now and then, and they were actually lookin ptretty damn good. Well one day, when the autumn leaves started to fall, we went to MURDER those plants!! But When we got there, 3 of the plants were missing. Only 1 remained. Why did the thieves leave just one plant we wondered? And the one plant they left us looked like some funky monkey. We were sooo happy.

. We had grown sum Grey colored weed!!!! We had never heard of weed being grey, so it Must be the bomb. when we cut it up, it even had grey powder in it. We smoked the hell out of it!! It tasted like shit and our lungs ached everyday........ and Tony got pneumonia

but it was Free WEED!!

I was reading a post about bud rot and I saw the exact same plant that Tony and I grew, LOL!!

Tony did not really get pneumonia! Everything else is True, even the mouse.......

Hello, that's a great story, wish I had those types of memories except the bud rot part haha.

Keep checking daily but still trying to keep them going, I'm harvesting them not this Friday but next so trying my best to keep them at it as there is still quite a lot of clear on some and the bud I tested was okay but not as strong but this could be my tolerance, taste was okay for a basically straight of the plant.

I'm looking at getting one of those Wi-Fi humidity sensors from Amazon, it won't be a mega expensive one but it's only ever for a 4*3 space so if a £30 one won't work then it's getting a naff review :laugh:

.

I have taken one of the lights out of the flowering tent and put it in my veg tent while taking out the T5 and UFO 80 Led lights, I'm planning on buying another sp250 or get a tsl2000 for flowering.

Once these seedlings are bigger and I move them to my other tent in another location I will then get some autos to try out, at that point I will only have the 6 clones and 2 White Widows, the 2 White Widows I plan to mainline them to cover a canopy of 2*3ft.

Undecided on what to do with the 3, Amnesia, 3 Bruce Banger, 3 Jack Herrer and 1 White Widow that I'm growing at another location and I would appreciate any help on getting the most out of the area, it's a 8*8 but we can only use at most 1200w from the wall, in also using auto pots so watering isn't a problem and I also plan to use a drip sprayer on top just to keep the top of the pot moist.

I was thinking of LST but only start training them when their around 12" tall and have a healthy set of branches already started growing and then just keep bending them over too a screen with ties and then once I flip them I will install another screen for support, yay or nay?

Think I'm going for the Megacrop once it's in stock and maybe try the other stuff from Greenleaf too, anyone know what it's like with coco and if it's a clean nutrient?
