Thats great, I had bud rot on 15% humidity with a fan blowing pretty much directly on the flowers. They were so wide that I think the scars from defoliating got infected with bud rot. I snip the leaves in half now and havnt had a problem. Best thread on this whole site mate, well done.

15% humidity? I wouldn't have even thought bud rot was possible at that humidity.

Thank you!.. I didn’t think bud rot could even survive at anything below ~40%? I suppose if the buds got so dense that airflow was impossible it could happen... I don’t know.

It is for sure, when you have colas the size of coke bottles. No air gets in, plus if you rip shade leaves off which damages the stem it can definitely happen....I know, I had really low humidity and. fan directly on them twice and it happened. Was Garlic Cheese, grows into monster tops and are unusually moist compared to other strains.

Check it, this is allegedly super critical. I bought these beans from Seedmans, I bought two and they both came out remarkably different. This one has a Christmas tree kind of Sativa look to it. But grows to a monster!! IM 6" 5 with hands the size of dinner plates and this baby has two more weeks left, notice I have cut the leaves in half. Now I think with something this big it is impossible to keep the moisture level down in the middle. Its got a really nice menthol/spicy smell to it. Dense as fuck.

Wished I would have counted the runs through the machine, but I’d guess about 65-75 runs for the ~27 lbs. And it took a hard 5 days running 8 hours a day to run it all, counting cleaning between runs, which took about 6-7 minutes to clean it.

Did you ever try out the Twister or a Centurion or any of these type of trimmers with the horizontal tubes?

Did you do it all by yourself? Or did you have people helping you out?
I ask because it looks like the most work is filling it up, cleaning and turning the switch from forward to backward every minute.

We used to own a T4, it was fast, but brutal on the buds. Turned them into a gemstone. On the GreenBroz, I was the only one operating the machine, and then a crew of 4-5 would be at the table hand finishing as I dumped each load. We have an 8 ft table with a hole cut in it. As they would finish, they just threw the finished buds into the hole, which had a catch barrel under it.

Took some great advise from @Renfro to back build our genetics from Ethos. We liked the OKC (Orange Kush Cake) Early Lemon Berry, Dosi Whoa!, and a couple of others from Blimberg, Seedsman, etc. .. Strawberry Banana Grape was shit.. ditching that one this round. Got the room cleared, soil warming up in the processing room, and bleached everything down. Transplanting these clones in the morning... or afternoon, whenever I wake up. We have definitely learned alot over the past 3 runs, and this time, we want to do a more scrog approach. I really fucked up this round by not setting the net low enough. But, I didn't know how these Ethos genetics were going to stretch. We know now. Hopefully, this round will be easier on us come harvest time.... alright, here we go!View attachment 4451225View attachment 4451228View attachment 4451229View attachment 4451228
