Looks very nice man, that karmarado is making my mouth water, and that Starbux. You only top that one time during growth? it's grown out very nicely

BUD ROT going on with the kimbo kush. Too sticky and dense, lucky if I get nugs at all. Same with sour power, too dense and the foggy mornings. Makes me sad. I've lost about a 1/4 pack. worms don't help either. No pesticides or anything but ph'd water after week 5.

I've been reading a lot of posts this morning. Whew! i'm glad I don't smoke some of the flowers these cats are producing. People spray their plants with pesticides and call it organic.

That might be why your getting the bud rot. I have flushed crops 2 weeks in the past and it was WAY too early to stop feeding them. I would get bud rot out of my mob boss every time. Plants feed HEAVY in weeks 5-7. Id have to dissect a few nugs and cut it out of there. The picture on the left was a one week flush I believe and mob boss nugs stack huge. Pistils will start to die and leaves will as well and this will start off some nasty bud rot deep within the nugs. I still flush I just dont do it as hard because Iv worked out how much they will use in weeks 6, 7 and 8. My outdoor is getting another round of molasses and langbenite today. Im going to make a video maybe Ill post it here.

It's only those 2 plants. My karmarado OG , GGG blue diesel, DVG starbux and DNA silver kush are thriving.

I live by a lake and it's himid and hot all day lol.... well it got a lot cooler today .... went from 89 to 65 over night and 99% of rot here is from worms
Same here. The BT is working well for me this year, have not had to use anything other than BT and seranade and a little h2o2 here and there.

But if things get bad, I will not hesitate to pull the Captan out and blast the rot. I have over $8,000 invested in this years grow and i'll be damned if I lose it for rot this year.

The past week has been so foggy and rainy here. Iv been worried but at least its not hot, its almost freezing 0..0 I havent seen any rot but Ill know for sure next week. I have a few plants that are pretty much ready to go, some need a few more weeks.

I have a couple of weeks to go and so far so good. I check every day and only had a bit on a couple of auto's I harvested the beginning of August

I'm not sure I would use capton but really haven't researched it enough to offer advice. Is there any documentation for using on pot? I think it's only to be used on tabacco in seedling stage. I've always just kinda lived with it and harvested if rot starts. I do find that some strains are more prone than others and stop running them or live with the loss.

It has a low toxicity rate. It is used mainly on apples, peaches, pears, grapes, blueberries, cherries and almonds. I will post or link some data on it for all that is curious. I have never heard of it used on tobacco and we grow tobacco and have for the last 20 years.

Oh and also, its main purpose and reputation is used specifically for botrytis. It works, I used it the last few years and me and no one else has gotten sick yet. Just think about what all they put in smoking and chewing tobacco, well since we grow it, I know its some bad shit. But hey, i'm a smoker and chewer anyway lol.

I just learned about this but have you tried any amino acids? I was watching videos and apparently they help in the uptake of calcium which in turn can drastically increase mold resistance.
