Could be an unrealistic goal to sell commercially if you grow outdoors in a humid area. Other mitigation techniques would be plant selection, making sure air movement is adequate, not crowding plants and not growing into the late season. Plant selection alone can make all the difference - big, tight buds are going to mold up on anyone if given the time.

No I dont care about selling it I just wonder how people pill it off because I always get mold problems even with air flow and thinning out the canopy and they test there stuff at thos3 places

I don't sell my meds.... they are mine....and I like them....
but I do a few things to try and not have a moldy garden....

The main thing I do is top the plants...
more smaller buds vs one huge cola are less likely to mold out

I used serenade last season and had the worst mold ever...so I'm going to say murph that shit...it also smells like pain and anger...

harvest before the rain comes...or cover them....rain on buds is bad news...

find a strain that wont mold on you and run with it..

If you are in a greenhouse definitely keep ventilation and air circulation in check. Like SBW said, try topping your plants. This way you can also open up the plants as you please to create more air circulation in the middle.

Horsetail tea I have mold issues too and it's powder mildew worse shit ever had it on almost all my plants had to let a few go cut it was that bad last year was my first rodeo so now I think I got a hang of things a lot better I know for.sure I am growing beastly plants compared to last year's but I have cleared then out and everything but this year I ordered htt and am hopping this works cut I'm already getting signs of pm on a few girls and I'm not willing to loose any this year. Also but rot isn't only due to mold it is also caused by bud worms or just bugs dying in the bud and the moisture from there body's will mold on the inside out and also the bud worm shit does the Same thing I know that was half my problem last year but those mother fuckers got something coming this year haha!
