Freaking out! Have i got Bud Rot?

The flushing is gonna help to get rid of the salt built up which I think is a determinant factor in the health of the plant. Since you already cut the nuts, I would flush once. The weight technique is kinda hard to explain since it consists in weighting the container by hand and get the feel of the weight in different stage. After a while you actually know if the plant need water or not, if the bucket feel dense and heavy, the plant has plenty of moisture, you're good. If the bucket feels empty and light, the soil is probably detaching from the wall, you water. Get used to read your ladies, look if they are down (sad) or wide open with the leaves going upward (happy). The shape, aspect, colour and touch of the leaves says it all. Be careful because sometimes and after watering, they pump a lot and leaves are kinda heavy, generally after a while moisture evaporate and they go wide open. Don't worry after a while, you'll get it ... like everything in life, it takes time and patience to be consistent.

Keep these sticky leaves and when you have a lot, make some bubble hash!

btw, I use drip clean from house garden with every feed or water and my girls seems to like a lot!

you add drip clean to every feed, or watering and it helps to remove the remaining nutes that were left?
Do you think i need a tds, ec or ph meter?
think im gonna flush it right now im all worked up

I use DC every time I had liquid, it's a prevention thing and it avoid salt built up. The bottle is kinda expensive but you only need very little like 1/4 TS per 4 gallons. For the ph, I use a cheapo ph kit and monitor the water each time. I'd love to have one of these fu fu meter but I don't really see the value, with the money I'd rather make my room bigger or buy another light or a kick ass fan extractor.

i ll ask around for drip clean mate, ill have to ask my online grow shop, since it looks harder to come by here then in the states but it should be no problem.

I do have to add that temps here recently have been over 30°C outside aswell. So that cant be good either.. i cant afford to put up airco just for the plant that would be crazy.

I hope the plant improves and some of the buds will still be usable.

How long do you recon till its ready?

Gonna take your last bit of advice and lighten up

testing a new strain right now, budda cheeze! Bad taste but good high!

You'll know when your ladies are ready because they will stink and you'll get hungry! joke apart (they will stink for sure),

1. Look for orange hair and no more white hair.
2. If you did the job right, you should feel by touch how the bud are denser than before.
2. Buy a cheap scope and watch the trichomes:

Trichomes are a transparent hair with a bowl attached at their top, trichomes go from clear to milky white to light amber to dark amber. The most potent THC content is when the trichome is on its way to be from milky to amber, there might be some light trace of dark amber too, this means: get your clipers and sing "Ho happy Day!", it's time to harvest. Monitor your trichomes every day and from the 6th week, not all trichomes progress exactly the same and at the same time, so try to apply an overall diagnostic.

If you can buy the book from Jorge Cervantes, there is a lot of good info and it will help you a lot.

just watched the trichomes, they are still see trough and not ready yet. ive placed the plant outside and flushed. hope it manages a bit to recover or at least continue to ripe..

i think i lost about 35 - 40% of my harvest

To see if you have bud rot take that cola and carefully inspect between the buds, especially the buds and the stem. Most of the time it won't stink. If it's gray and/or moldy you have bud rot. I think you have one of the following. Your humidity levels are to low, Your day/nightime humidity levels are inconsistent, your plants are too close to the light. I've had PH lockout do this sort of thing to. On many strains if your humidity goes below 37% it'll dry out the cola. Now that you have dead leaves in the cola you have to watch your humidity levels so that those dead leaves don't soak up moisture and create mold within the bud.
