max_headroom Posted March 31, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2016 Thanks Ozzy...the more I look at her the less I want to leave her in the ground so I am getting ready to grab her very shortly...just getting myself organised...if that much damage is in one night ...I would hate to think what she is like after another 24 hrs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzy420 Posted March 31, 2016 Report Share Posted March 31, 2016 That damage has been there for a wile it has just taken this long for you to pick up on it bud rot dose not happen over night... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
max_headroom Posted March 31, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2016 I was really surprised to see the damage and budrot was my first guess but these went from Ok to this overnight although I did notice a 2 days ago a single stemmed leaf had withered but the rest looked fine...I thought I had damaged it when taking trich pics...The rest of the plant looks Ok and just one branch involved...at the end of the day what ever has caused it seems to be moving along so I think your first advice is still the right thing...out she comes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzy420 Posted March 31, 2016 Report Share Posted March 31, 2016 If it is only that one cola you can take that and leave the rest of the plant, just give a good once over to try and find any more. Once u touch the bad cola dont touch the rest of the plant until u wash your hands really well as not to spread it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
max_headroom Posted March 31, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2016 Been looking carefully at the plant and there are signs of an issue in a couple of other buds...leaves look slightly withered... I am going to a do a partial cut of anything looking suspect and hopefully io have caught it in time...Thanks for your help...it's only a couple of weeks away from finished anyway....its 183 days today and been flowering for just under 100 days...so if I have to go it a bit early then so be it....I will leave behind for a second cut later cheers Max Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir PsychoHashy Posted April 1, 2016 Report Share Posted April 1, 2016 You notice those leaves in the first couple of pics in particular that are dying off in that particular way rather than yellowing off, that's a sign to look inside the bud in that area whenever you see it, as it's one of the first signs of mould inside the bud. My understanding is that this plant was already showing ambers (or am I mixing it up?), and has already had some flushing, in which case immediate harvest is the go. In which case, go over her looking for those signs and carefully remove those branches for separate treatment before harvesting the rest. When I trim, I use it as an excuse to go through the buds looking for mould before hanging buds to dry, that way you minimise the risk of spores getting into your stash. If you're worried about mould, trimming before drying will help air get through the buds, and dry them faster, so yet another reason to get the suspect ones off the plant and out of the way first, cause trimming takes time, works out roughly an oz (dry) per hour for me. If it's not ready though, you can just keep going over the plant and removing suspect buds, or carefully chopping bits out. But you want to be sure of the cause first, if it's insect or caterpillar attack it will likely be more widespread and not a good idea, if it's just the odd bud with storm damage or something else non-systemic, then it works okay in my experience. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It kills it by suffocation. Saves the chance of spreading to other parts by touching and disturbing the mould spores. Like Ozzy said harvest now is a good idea. Hate bud mould really hate it.
