the bud rot looks to be at least a week old and when you poke your figer into it its kinda mushy there are a few shriveled up leaves that fell strait out as soon as you touched them also it it 'did' have mould over the tops of some of the mould spots. im not too worried because the general size of the bud will make up for any loss caused by mould
i was using the large black square plastic pots which are pretty common but even though i watered well the bottom of the soil always remained dry. there was quite a bit of condensation dripping from the ceiling onto the buds but i had no way to control it other than stop watering but then the plants wilted due to lack of water.
from the start i knew i'd have problems but xmas is near and i cant get any smoke from anywhere so i thought i'll grow me own to last me, wont be growing 8 again next time its way more than i needed so im gonna freeze half and save it for spring oh i got about 100 seeds from them too so im well chuffed :thumbsup:
i didnt have any money to buy fancy extraction fans or filters so i built my own filter using active carbon though the fan wasnt powerful enough the whole setup was done pretty cheap but i got what i wanted and plenty of it so im happy
oh btw in a rage of panic i realised the old fasioned way of getting rid of nasty odours, i used vinegar on a plate, seems to have helped a lot. thanks again for the tips :thumbsup:
