I have lower my temperature to 77 but humidity still on the 58,s or even 70's when lights out, small fan blows directly at the buds at fair distance and 6 inch carbon filter exhausting any air.
At end of week 6, buds are forming more like buds and 50/50 orange/white hair, her resin production has going way up pass week and half, looks ready to me but I'll give her flushing and 10 more days.

cover the pots with panda film this will help reduce humidity a lot.

Sure, give a try tomorrow, I check buds daily for any sight of mold, buds are fatter.

Well in theory the carbon filter helps alot against mold, if you have good ventilation this also helps. If you can keep it less than 50% HM that's fine. The problem can happen if over 55% HM, bad ventilation and lack of carbon filter, to control HM% i'd suggest a Dehumidifier 5-10L so it can last 24hrs and that it can at least take it down to 35-40% HM, amazon has many.
Remove leaves you don't need, like the bottom ones, less leaves less humidity, if you intend to cut her down in 10 days you might as well start trimming off the crap you dont need so you have less to trim off the bud

Personally i'd go for the Dehumidifier
Mine has Turn off timer, 13L Container takes 24hrs at least to fill with a 65%HM, I can regulate the HM% level down to 35%, it will automatically activate if the HM% is different to your personal preferance. It has a digital HM% which is very precise cost around $120 - $80 off should have been $200. I've seen fairly decent ones for $40-80 but the containers are 3-5L and fill up fast in high HM%.

Know what I think my ventilation is good enough to combat mold, I have a single plant in tent 2x4x5, air movement is good ( hoping I'm right) so I'll ride this time with out it, and future get equipped.
She's getting fresh water 2 times weekly for 2 weeks then chop, leaves still very green so tells me she's holding lots of unwanted parts that affect taste and high of buds,
Got me new seeds from royal queen seeds by supreme seeds (debt card no question) and put in water day later 2 rooted 4 waiting
Chocolate haze ?
Shine silver haze ?
Berry haze ?
Silver haze - yes
Free seeds ak47 x2 1 yes

Mate them buds are looking sweet. Great journal mate. Cant wait to see tje harvest and weigh in.

Yeah they an big it look big, I took a simple and dry in veg tent 2 days, tasted little harsh, hard rock bud, very oily and good buzz.

So I guess the end of this week will be the 10th day, that is Saturday for *CHOP CHOP*
Before you do it, remember to take the Pics of the Buds if possible close ups
Let us know how much yield you got wet and dry
I'm sure it's going to be well worth your time
It looks healthy and if the air was moving around enough with that carbon filter ALWAYS active I think you will not have mold issues. Next time try with a dehumidifier, keeping it around 40-45% HM increases resin production on the last few weeks - More Frosty

Even if today might be the day, if they are not nice and frosty or if they are, I suggest check the trichomes with at least a decent lens or microscope, I use a 60-120x portable led micriscope and 60x is usually enough for me to judge time for harvest.
I got the : Carson MicroBrite Plus - Microscopio 60-120x cost less than $20.

After all that hard work would be a shame to pull out early without double checking close up just to be 110% sure

What exactly do you need a microscope for? It's not rocket science to see how many pistils have changed.

Ah you're referring to the trichomes and cloudiness.

Yes exactly, you are also right but just to get it EXACTLY how he could want it, this is why I say he should give it one last inspection to make sure.
I personally go for 50/50, 60/40 or 70/30 at times.
I just want to make sure he gets the best possible results, cause I noticed he did do a Bud Smoke Sample but personally I avoid this for various reasons. Personally if I were to clip a Bud, I'd put it under a decent microscope or lens (at least 60x), then I would do a proper natural dry and some cure to remove that harsh taste he got.
The problem is he can't really wait 2-3 weeks for a Natural dry/cure 1 bud if he's so close to harvest, it would only allow him to have an idea of end quality BUT it would not help him much on deciding when to harvest cause the result wouldn't be based upon the time he clipped the Bud.
With the Microscope or 60x Lens he can see the Trichomes and decide exactly when to harvest without any regrets on his own personal choice of quality

In the end why waste a good smoke when it could be even better
The Crop looks Great so I want him to get the Best Possible quality for all his hard work.

OZAK here is a PAR700 Review I found, seems exactly the same as yours just slightly more powerful. 330W max pull

I work long hours summer time, and harvest was heavy weigh 2.5 zips dry, and I try some baking and 3 of us smoke so most of got burnt. I'll get some buds shots.

Mostly cerebral high, after feel joints affect was more like indica heavy legs, tired, sleepy etc...
I cooked half ounce weed and half stick of butter 3 hrs later mix some dark chocolate to melt and put in frizer ten minutes, nice i enjoyed, so it was great experience to grow, harvest and get baked .....

So I guess that must have been 5-6 oz (wet) in total, not bad , not bad at all considering you were only using the PAR

Looks like most buds were 2"x1" average and nice and solid after dry, so probably 3"x1,5" wet, that seems very nice for this light. I bet next time your results will be better cause you'll make even better use of the dimmer now that you're getting used to it
Mine are still 1-2 maybe even 3 weeks off. Heat waves have slowed process I think...Now I added my portable AC and they seems to be doing alot better, white hairs are 50/50 average, under a scope it seems the same, so I gotta wait at least 2 weeks but due to another heatwave inc this week, so it might be 3 weeks for this reason.

On a lighter side I got me my new Pollen Extractor

https://pollenextractor.com/Shop/en/pollen-extractor-original/usa-pollen-extractor.html

It's cheap but works well and I got the 150 micro filter instead of the 180 micro. For me it's better than using a sift box
I got the package with the mini kief press and they gave me a pipe and socks for free
