Am I going to spread the bud rot indoors??!

So I just had to take one of the outdoor ladies down, noticed a few small spots where the rot was taking hold.

I grow indoor in my basement with a grow tent, also. The basement is really the only option for me to process and dry the harvest.

I'm wondering - I've clipped and removed the rot I can find, and have hung the rest. Temps in basement are 68-72 - RH around 55% with dehumidifier. What is the probability that I spread some unseen spores to my indoor girls?? The other worry is bringing pests in! I just don't have another space as an option... Any thoughts?

Fungal spores are everywhere anyhow, as long as you have good enough airflow such as enough fans exchanging air around the plants you will be fine.

Awesome.. Thanks budman!! So it's more just making sure they don't have the right environment for the spores to thrive then? That makes sense. I've got a 535 cf inline, 16 inch oscillating and 6 inch blowing across between light and canopy, so air flow shouldn't be too much of a problem. Thanks again, man!!

Cover your plants in tape with sticky side out and it will catch all the spores before it even hits the plant.... fool proof
