This plant is getting close just a couple weeks to go and looking so good I’m petrified about bud rot cuz it nailed a plant last year late in the grow. I have 4 fans in there, temp is around 70-75 and RH 40. What do you think?

Gorgeous plant! Ive had rot problems last grows, over crowded tent, high temps/rh, no ventilation etc...your set up looks great, numbers are ok...
Do you have an idea what caused it last time?

Thanks! Yes that was a summer grow and things got way too hot. Winter seems much easier for co trolling temps.
 
Looking nice!
It's normal to be concerned about rot but at 40% humidity I wouldn't have too much concern about it, I can get 47/48% on a good day, 52/56% being more the norm, i've not seen rot in years.
 
Even if its draining off somewhere, that material is a reservoir of stuff growing underneath.
Black mold will live between the layers of nylon and mylar, move up every time it gets damp again.

Just put a tent flood tray on cinder blocks and plywood, drain tube off to res/drain, or wet vac out.
These are so much easier than saucers or low bins.
