Help! First time grower, bud rot??

10 weeks into grow -Hydroponic

Temp fluctuating between 21-31C
RH: 30-59%
Dehumidifier
2 oscilliating fans

The plant have grown out of my control basically, i never ever expected it to become like this, as i was told 30-90g was normal for an autoflower plant. There have been an area were the plants haven't gotten so much airflow, i tied a few of the branches back a little bit because they kept falling outside the tent when i opened it up, those and a bit of the lower branches have turned blackish and half wilted away, the top pistills turned reddish on those small budds also

Anyone got a clue to whats going on?

(also i know its way to hot there, ive been struggling all growth with this and dehumidifier is also adding some extra C)

Also if anyone with experience would be so kind as to take a guess on how long before i could harvest this grow, the trader i got it from didnt have much more information than that it was Auto Tangerine, it was one of the freeseeds they shipped with.

Best Regards!

Those scraggly looking branches imo are from not enough light hitting them and then you upped the nutes at some point and kind of fried them or maybe fried isnt the right word but anyways and probably would be best to trim off the plant as its wasting energy to keep them alive, growing them when you wont get anything from it.

Sorry i counted days looks like i am about 11 and a half week into it.

You really think there is another month left? I havent changed res in about a month and was hoping to do next time for flushing. My plant almost fell over twice (very close) changing res last time

Also its not growing much taller, budds are just fatening up. There is maybe 10-20% of pistills that have changed color

Don't see any rot. Got some time left there. I would cut out all those scraggly looking lowers and any other branches that don't have much going on. Get some air flow going and stop let those useless branches suck the life out of the rest. Easy on the nutes too.
 
Yeah started getting some brown spots 4 days ago when i raised ppm to about 850. I have a routine were i refill res every 2 days with about 30l of water and a cup of nutes.
(70liter res) plant didnt like 850, but only added half a cup 2 days later and it went to 750 and thriving there, had about 450 a month ago.

But can i wait out the growth before changing res water for the flushing?
I have hydroguard in there and usually add a spoonfull every 4-6 days.

Also i know this is a very unpopular question but how much u guys think ill end with from this one?

I thought autos was 1-3 Oz, had originally 2 but managed to kill the other one, which i am very glad now that it happened. Not so glad back then 3 weeks into it

Auto can get over the pound mark, 1, 3 oz is a low yield plant
