Oh man I am sorry to hear that bro! I know its only one bud but as I'm sure you're aware where's there's one there's bound to be another. If I were in your situation (obviously I don't know everything about your situation) I'd be getting some massive airflow going and a dehumidifier rolling ASAP. Hope everything rolls clean from here on out man. Keep us updated :)

Like GS said, dehumidifier at LIGHTS OFF and a heap more air flow? Make those ladies dance!!!

Is it too late to use a bud rot foliar spray? I've no idea how it will affect the final product. Worth it? I don't know. Just throwing ideas out there. I've got a bottle I'd never had to use. Probably just luck. I've read a ton of horticulture books and have been putting things into practice, but haven't had to tackle rot - YET. I'm sure my time will come.

I'd get a couple of clip fans spinning. Shit, can you even fit a dehumidifier in there?

I want to see this to the end. I'm loving this thread.

run the dehumidifier outside the tent in the same room and try to seal the room that should lower the RH
at the stage those buds are at. a good humidity to try to maintain would be 30%, that would be perfect
and get alot of air circulation going in that tent and the room.
those buds look to good to loose to rot

I don't know. I've never had much success at introducing more fans at the end of the grow. The leaves in the tops just tend to dry out and make things worse.

I guess I could try running the dehumidifier. RH went up to 80% lights out and 70% lights on. So it is getting rather critical :o

Time for an update after 7 weeks of visible flowering.

Leaves are starting to yellow a bit and some tops are showing more and more amber trichomes. It's a very mixed bunch so it probably will take a while till they are all done, but the first ones are getting chopped this week.

I've dropped the EC to around 0.9 (450ppm). Otherwise not much to note.

One of the tops (2nd from the right all the way to the back):

Some closer shots of the tops which look most ripe to me:

Forgot to post the pictures of the last update. Which was 5th of august.

I had harvested a few tops then already, but most were still up:

Following foto's are more recent.

Few days ago I harvested the rest of the tops and stuck the nugs on the net:20170816_Nugs_DSC3872.jpg

Some of the bigger tops were harvested earlier and I hang those to dry. Some are dry already and I'm manicuring them now: 20170816_DriedTop_DSC3880.jpg

I'm not the fastest at manicuring the buds, but eventually I guess I will know the dry and manicured weights :)
