Default air curing v water curing................
all my trichs have gone cloudy (just the very odd amber)and i am starting to suffer with mould on my outdoor plants. it doesnt look like the mold is on the buds yet.

i have sprayed the plants to treat them, dont know if it will work and was worried about air drying as the weather is getting damper. would i be better off water curing as this will also get rid of the mold treatment?

comments please....

this is my first grow

Water curing won't help the situation, just prolong it.

You need to get them dry. Mold loves moisture, so watercuring may make it worse.

If your treatment doesn't help, cut them now and get them dry.

If it's too humid to dry, you need to find a way to get dry air. Dehumidifier would be best, but if you need to you could dry them faster in a dehydrator or other heat/fan combo. Once dry, get them ito jars for a good cure.

The bud won't be as good as it could be, but some sub-optimal bud is better than no bud at all!

thanks for that.
cant believe that i got mold. have brought them indoors and have a small radiator on them at night, during the day they have fresh air. cant afford to lose this lot as i have about 15 colas on each plant

does mold pass from plant to plant? i have lost a lot of yellow fan leaves, these seem to be the ones mostly affected

i will try and remain positive, just wish it was ready for harvest now

It can transfer plant to plant, but it takes some time. You'll be able to see it spread day by day.

If you'll this close, and only fan leaves are affected, I'd strip them off - at least the yellow ones. They aren't much good to the plant at this point anyway.

Lol, fan leaves are the backbone of a good plant, plants photosynthesize for energy - it's like removing the engine from a car.
