Arrrgh... this is mould right?

[420gen]

im no expert man but think u found the reason why u got mold.. humidity way too high .

Love this place... can't keep up with the replies

Humidity has varied from 49 to 70 during lights out when it's been raining recently. Right now it's 69 outside the tent and 58 inside. Temps swing from 18 to 27 though I've just reduced the lights out from 6 hrs to 3 and a half to try and reduce the swing and humidity. Intake is passive. If I lower the extract speed temps and humidity both rise.
Got 3 tent fans. Two fixed and 1 occilates. Plus the extract causes a lot of negative pressure

Baggied, ziptied and cut :'(

From what I've read I caught it at it's earliest stage so that's good I hope. I'm skipping watering tonight and considering putting the lights on 24/7 to stop the humid spikes during lights out

Pics loaded in wrong order... 2nd one is the rot.

Cheers for all the immediate responses folks. Not bad for 2 in the morning lol.

I've put the good bits on a paper towel in a small cardboard box on my desk... got no paper bags or extra fans... will that work to dry em? Room temps usually around 20 degrees

Sincerely hope you got it all brother nothing more gut wrenching than grot just before the chop, i've dried in cardboard boxes in the past mate should be pukka , wish you luck matey, all the best G'.

I take my filter off sometimes so more air can be pulled out if I have concerns about heat or humidity. Works for me but not ideal for everyone

glad it's only 1-2 buds though mate
could have been so much worse

It's a double-shitter that it always targets the biggest buds too!

Cheers guys, I'm checking for dying leaves but seen no others yet. Will watch em like a hawk for any more damage. I've removed the timer on the lights now so they're finishing with lights on 24/0. Hope that's ok... figured it would help eliminate rh spikes. I'm also gonna go back to watering every other day rather than daily as pots usually still have some weight to them after only a day.

I'm hoping conditions in the cabin work out better as I'll have the extraction going outside. Temps will be cooler but hopefully not too bad as the floor and roof are insulated and I'll have the tent enclosed with another sheet of insulation above it and below the work bench. Just need to make sure there's enough space for passive intakes to do their thing.

Will do my next grow on 24/0 I reckon... at least in flower. Might do 20/4 in veg as humidity is a plus I guess. Is changing light cycles like that ok or will it cause the plants stress or something?
