Bud rot

Just found bud rot in a few plants. Still need to flush to harvest ASAP. Harvest is only one week away. Would a dehumidifier help as so much water with flushing

The problem is that if you found rot on a few buds, it's likely spread elsewhere as well; particularly if the cause was environmental.

You're simply seeing the buds that are the worst or most obvious examples.

As mentioned above, flushing doesn't fix anything

dehumidifiers basically help a lot vs. budrot, while now its course a bit late and can only slow down the rot.

Half my room is ready and ginger but the other half is still white hairs. First time grown from seeds which I will never do again. Always clones but at the time ran out of dollars and had to use seeds

It depends on the degree.
Rot doesn’t always ruin an entire grow.
However, flushing is not gonna do anything.
You shouldn’t be flushing at all but that’s another debate.
Cut the infected buds off.
Inspect carefully the ones you don’t think have any rot.
Then let it ride til you think they’re ready, without flushing.
Pics would get you better advice and maybe change mine.

I know that I'm not that stupid. As I said it's half and half ready. Cut what I can see off and checked the rest and can see no signs. Wanted an opinion as to just flush and take it all down now

“Half my room is ready and ginger “ - not sure what that means but if buds are truly “ done “ then you can break down colas to inspect further and either brown bag dry or mesh dry what is salvageable .

Flushing only breaks down salt and excess in soil not plant. Even if buds were straight, flushing does nothing for harvest anyways. Its a failsafe for growers too heavy handed in feed.

No they are all ready mostly ginger. Some I would have left another week. As I said first time from seeds usually clones and they have seemed to grow at different stages
