- Thread starter pollen205
- Start date
I am in 1 day of week 5 and I defoliate in week 3 10 days ago from now but She recover excellent and now the Plant is crazy bushy inside and now I see lot of bud sites that dont have light at all
But my main problem is RH. 70% light on and off
Strain is 50 50 Indics sativa so I really hope that sativa gen will be resistance to rot in last few weeks of flower
Can I defoliate now? That will be my last defoliation I hope and 3rd from start
Will this couse hermie?
It is the RH problem but want to help as much as I can and defoliation seems to me Like my best option since I cant lower RH any how
Last Grow i harvest early because rot attack bud but that time I Grow Pure Afghanistan indica and really want this time to go Full cycle without bud rot
What will you Expert do in this situation
Please help with some advice

If you are TRULY into flower ... at week 5 , I would say ride it out . Flowers are past stretching .
So any planning is pretty much moot . You will end up with larf for sure. But they are busy blooming so any unnecessary stress would not help.
Even if Sativa lean is there , it will depend how long it takes to mature . By week 6 nitro use ( branching , stretch is pretty much done ) and it will look to swell and bulk instead.
You should be dealing with the RH ASAP , if flowers trap that high Rh you will have mold.
Also how high is light ... leaves look a little stressed.

You need a dehumidifier asap. You WILL end up with bud rot/mold in etc. Defoliating is up to you I usually do it twice during flower, in the beginning and middle. Like Budz said if you truly are in week 5 I'd just ride it out. But its up to you, a little defanning now will give you more light penetration, it will also help with you humidity, AND it will make for less work at harvest time.
Light are really close now I dont have any space to go up anymore...the plant strech relly well and I did not expect that...What stress do you see ?
I have small dehumidi but dont fucking help at all...

Can the light be dimmed?

Also having a passive airflow in the grow area that's running 24/7 may be needed for a bit.

Are you running a sealed room? If not can you exhaust more air?

What about an ionizer guys!? Or am I way off base!?
yes..my main tops are 10 cm from cool cobs now on 190 w...I go with logic if it is ok for my hand it is ok for plant...And I can really hold my hand and not get burn...but what do you suggest ?
You see some light stress or heat stress ?
I have really relly good air flow now when I defoliate her...Having 2 fans inside tent that circulate air around and having extract fan that give me negative pressure in tent and pull old air out...
I dont have fan that move fresh air in...
Will it help if I buy fan for that ?
But If my humidity in room where tent is high if I install that fan I really dont get point since my humidity is high in that room from where I collect air
no sealed and no I cant
Really first time hearing this
Thank you all for help and replay
From yesterday when I defoliate my humidity is now 50 % light off but I am just in week 5 so I expect when buds get bigger the humidity is go up as well?
My best option from what I find is small house calcium chloride dehumidi but dont know will that chloride damage my plant somehow ?
Do you have some hack that I can use in my house like salt flour rice or anything that I can put inside or in front of my tent to collect that humidity?
And Is there on market any mechanisam that 100% kill boytritis spores light off or on...
I looking for that...
Just wondering if in air is 0 spores then I can flower in high humidity...right? so How can I kill spores
Once again thank you all very much

I dun
Now the humidity being so high is a concern in flower, is the ambient humidity high? It looks like you have avoided PM thus far so thats good, but you still need to worry about bud rot. I think they call it botrytis[sp?].
no, they do look a little pale up top, hard to tell how bright it is but you do say the light can't be raised. one can have too much light.

Yes for now I really avoid PM but that bud rot is my main concern...Ambient in room where tent is 45 % iside tent 50 % now

Im trying to understand why a dehumidifier in that tent won't work!

You're in week 5 from flip, week 3 in flowering.
High humidity isn't going to make or break you, as long as you have circulation you should be good. It's not good, but when I harvest outdoors, humidity is usually around there, sometimes higher.
I would defoliate again and pull some branches away from the light, make sure I have the best circulation I can, and maybe even throw some cheap desiccant packs in there if I notice any condensation... Since that's your biggest enemy with mold and rot.

Oh I see so no exhaust fan? With two fans on all the time ........huh.
it is small 23 w 300 ml per day shit dehumidi...and space is 80x80x160 cm small grow tent so maybe that...
..my night temp is 16 c day 22-23 so I really dont have heat or temp problem
Week 3 you say... So I have minimal 5 week from now ?

Maybe defoliate the middle of the plants and put a bigger diameter fan blowing vertically upwards? Just a thought. Right now it's 18 f outside here so I'm kinda outa the loop with high humidity this time of year where I am. I'd love to help u and see you do well regardless tho man!
I have exhaust I dont have intake...
When I started this I read that exhaust will e just fine inside tent without intake fan because tent leaks air from zip lock and that is how new frash air comes in...
Am I right ?
Or I need to buy intake as well
