Aiming 400g 3x3 Runtz Muffin in hydroponics. I have poor sight

Increased root pressure, no circulation and 50rh being the cause? That was enough to give me budrot. Ive been wondering if thats really what causes it most the time. If the water lacks any bit of oxygen it can gutate. Lowering humidity rediculously low might solve it?

Im in dtw coco so it doesnt have that problem. This wouldnt be the only problem I have if I tried dwc tho. My water would rot for sure even with bleach.

Mostly the reason was two dead leaves I didn't notice... Climate made it rapid. Idk why the leaves died. Must've damaged them somehow...
 
I mean, Ive seen a lot of credible people say that causes mold but Ive not have it happen to me. It happened once first grow it was all packed together comedically and rh spikes from dehuey bein full. I thought Id never see it again until I did with fully healthy plants just fuzz growing out of control. Then PM showed up and was like yup Im done.
 
Found two small buds more with budrot - over canopy fan turned off for three days, five days ago...

Really prone to rot because of quite fat nugs having the leaf stem far into the bud. Also the fact that these are really close to each other. Raised the fan speed up. 29c, 45-55%rh. Conditions aren't that bad really. Window open 24/7 for fresh air. Can't do more, just keepin an eye on them now.
 
Sorry to hear about the mold its a bitch for sure i aslo have a few circulation fans that run 24/7 i figure during veg it helps stiffen branches and during flower it helps keep the air moving to help with RH .
Hopefully you dont find anymore .

Do you move any air below cannopy?
It can be a bit tricky but one way is to put a small fan (or even one of these DC computer type fans) against the tent wall. Temps are usually lower under cannopy which rh spike below a bit. Some diffuse air movement really helps ;)

I did have a fan there but I broke it during the heatwave. The oscillating over canopy fan penetrates about half of the top canopy with medium setting. Planning to order a few of those small PC fans allover, would reduce the noise level besides more headroom. I'm thinking of dehumidifier but maybe it's too noisy for my taste.

For a tent its usually tricky to find a dehuey that works well enough without changing temps too much. Pushing air thru the cannopy in a nice diffused way, without the leaves trashing from direct air movement is the way to go. Then you just extract the rh from the top. Its about controlling microclimates in the grow environment. Its a good idea to have a temp/rh meter hanging somewhere mid/below cannopy aswell.
 
@Rocket Soul I just modified an old 5" inline fan wing to my previously broken fan's motor, switch and frame. Works like a charm, pushes and spreads especially well, and basically noiseless at the low setting. Always cutting expenses :D

Top cannopy rh is likey much lower than under cannopy rh: rh goes down as temps go up, this is why its a good idea so you know what is going on below.
Love the diy air movement:)

Yeah I'll better get extra meter, it's so small expense and Autumn is coming soon with its moisture.
I'm being miserly since I lost my previous equipment in a raid, twice, and now that I've got perpetual system it feels like I'm always buying something! Low expense system, initial investment was 630€ total for 1.45m² and running costs with all included about 60€/month. Making 350-500g every other month gives lots of options, for next appartment...

Dont i know it, the "i need this..."-list is eternal and forever growing. But honestly pretty much every sensible investment we made has paid off. Happy growing:)
