Budrot salvage question

I have about 4 plants that i've taken down after seeing budrot, they were all due.

I've taken away all visibly affected buds and tossed them. The rest is in the closet with in (fresh) and out fans, and osc
fan on them running 24/7 for a quick dry. Under the scope i can find a few white hairs on every stem i've checked,
nothing visible to the naked eye because the hairs are spaced apart but it's definitely the start; it just hasn't
spread to the flowers yet.

My question is will this develop more after the buds have been dried, i want to do the whole crop and will have to get the
butane and make an extractor before i can do anything which will take some time.

My inline duct got blocked for a while, started noticing the room getting pretty hot, i thought the fan was just burning out.
That, along with the moisture of the final flush is what did it.

Still kicking myself for not going up there to see if it was blocked or not. Whole harvest fucked over thanks to a piece of
panda film getting stuck in the pipe, what an arse.

I'm not too bummed though, I wanted to toss these plants when they were smaller and start the new seeds i ordered but
i was worried about being smokeless for too long. Smoked this stuff for over a year (special queen), it's okay but i'm over it.

Sorry to hear about it man. Gotta stay on it better next time right?!? I don't have any experience with this situation, but just wanted to say I hope you can figure something out. To get to the end and then this, gotta be a heart breaker.

Yep, scrog next time with some better genetics and a better exhaust fan, just gotta clean out the room before seedlings are ready.
The air flow with these bushy things was pretty poor even with osc fan.

Micron syringe..
Yes it will grow..
What else can i do to minimize the amount of spores going into the bho to be filtered because i might have to order the
filter. At least once they're all extracted i'll have all the time in the world to wait for a filter to get here from ebay.

How much iso would you use per gram of bho?

Filter the bulk of the mold out with 2 coffee filters during your blast.....I'm assuming you mean, iso to rehydrate the bho and filter through the .2 micron syringe?
Your gonna have to play that one by ear..but heating up booth bho and iso will help dissolve it..not that its a struggle....evap iso thin film no greater than 1/8inch of hash to effectively purge and retain goodies...you can store solution in the freezer till you have micron syringe...it will pull all of anything including bacteria mold etc

Mold that eats live shit is OK
Mold that eats dead shit ie aspergillus etc releases aflatoxins...
Bud rot eats live shit and produces no harmful nasties

Thanks for the info, If i get an ebay filter i could be waiting up to 2 months for it to arrive, china post is really slacking this
time of year and that seems to be where they're all sent from, might try and find somewhere local

I did alot of googling trying to find out which kind of mold it was, just to make sure it wasn't black mold.
If i found it during cure i'd definitely toss the lot.

You can see i didn't keep them in order as well as i should have

I'm replacing with dwc for next time with a screen, as well as a new out fan to match the power of the in fan
