There is the physical/structural dimension to avoiding bud rot too. Plants with narrow leaves and a more stretchy structure tend to be the evolutionary outcome of humid tropical cannabis. Plants with massive juicy buds/colas always have more tendency to various kinds of fungal attacks. Maui Waui...
I'm pasting in some info that I failed to record the source - the words and image are not mine. I will say that the image may seem confusing since popular terminology refers to the bract as the calyx, and the calyx is actually a layer closely appressed to the seed coat...
Leaves and stems have trichomes too. There are different kinds of trichomes and "we" mostly celebrate the capitate stalked glandular ones that can be quite dense on the small leaves and calyxes of the female flowering plant. Some plants, like Dinamed-CBD don't have so many of those, but have...
I should have said I think it is a fungus, given that it responded so dramatically to the Neem spray. No idea what fungus. The next picture doesn't do them justice - they were cut back really hard 20240303 before I went away for 2 wks; they are under a "day extension" 9W LED lamp in my sunroom...
Brother, I feel your pain. Those plants don't look so bad. Over the last year I was fighting something. I went through the seven stages of grief. I studied the GrowWeedEasy symptom galleries. The symptoms didn't match anything - or rather they matched everything. So I thought it was root rot or...
You might consider adding a small low-cfm fan. It helps mix the air, speeds eqilibration. Your dehumidifier will stir the air when it is ON, but things go still when it is off. Doesn't need to be much. I use an 80mm Enermax fan in a 16cu ft space and it is very nice and gentle. This one is...
Wounding is often done in propagation so I do it. More wounded area and more contact with the rooting powder may give more/faster callus and roots. But "if it ain't broke, don't fix it". Sounds like yours root in timely fashion. They can only root so fast. I've never had any rot from the slits...
Disease. Thank you for being so kind in pointing that out. I deserved worse. I should have known that. In this current environment of Hop Latent Viroid I should be taking every precaution. I guess (hope) I've been lucky with my isolation and not bringing in cuttings in recent years.
i don't know what method people use for rooting cuttings.
I've tried a lot of cloning methods. The one I've been using with 99.9% success is a slight modification of "Freak's Stupid
Simple Cloning Method" (Freaks Stupid Simple Cloning Method)
I can absolutely vouch for this method. This is...
