Hello Fugitive Oh dear you're trusting someone with you're baby .........I can't find a smiley with a worried look

I don't think it's possible to wash the resin off is it ?.............To be honest it's not something I've ever thought about
Tell you what the only way I've found to get it off my fingers at harvest time is to scrape it off with my teeth ............... well it's to good to waste

I personally wouldn't worry about a few roots poking through at this stage, it happens sometimes and I just throw a few handfulls of compost on top of them

Hmmm "bud rot" I hate it , the only thing to do with it is to cut it out, such a waste of bud ................. I've had it happen a couple of times.
The worst case was when I did my very first grow (outdoors) and it did cost me quite a fair amount of bud, however it's not normally a major problem indoors
