I brought this up in another thread but decided it might be worth having as a standalone topic. During the Oregon wildfires last month, my plants got covered in ash despite being in a hoophouse. Folks advised me to wash it off but I was reluctant to do so, due to fear of bud rot from getting...

Do you guys think the ash has anything to do with how bad the bud rot is this year? I initially shrugged it off but that ash got EVERYWHERE and I could see that shit working itself into crevices and causing moisture buildup, etc.

It checks too many boxes. I’m surprised people assume he is telling the truth about the diagnosis.

You sure he’s not lying to prove COVID is no big deal? I know this sounds paranoid but it is also very plausible.

Not sure why it’s snowflaking just to acknowledge something learned from experience. It’s not unusual to be attacked on here for deviating whatsoever from the party line. Even when you’re not sure what the party line is. Not that I feel like arguing about it, tho. Another thought that crosses...

As someone who cannot stand Trump, I only see downsides from this. If he remains asymptomatic, he will be the conquering hero who proves COVID is no big deal. If he gets sick and survives, he will elicit sympathy and votes. If he dies, he will inspire countless QAnon theories about...

You gotta do what you gotta do

I usually just wait to water until the soil looks dry and the container is light but before the plants start wilting. Underwatering a tad is easier to correct than overwatering, which stunts the seedlings.

The fact some leaves appear to only have 3 leaflets isn’t unheard of. I had a plant do that and turned out fine. Now her progeny don’t have that trait. The leaves look like they may have some sort of slight nutrient deficiency but it may just be the light.

The soil looks too wet — better lay off on the watering or they’ll get stunted.

Howdy!

Not sure what’s wrong but it’s not revegging. That looks different — weird smooth-edged single leaflets and such.

I haven’t noticed any caterpillars on mine but I could easily understand how them chewing shit up would create plenty of opportunities for the fungus to gain hold...

Looking good but keep an eye out for botrytis. Jesus — I was so happy with how cozy my plants were looking under the hoophouse, right up until I saw that sickly gray mold. I should still get a decent seed crop so I can’t complain too much about the actual crop. The problem is I thought the...

Anybody else have any ideas? The seeds from the rotten buds are still firm and some appear pretty mature. Is it worth trying to save and germinate them? Or is something fucked up inside?

I especially put up a hoophouse but still got fucking bud rot. Definitely discouraging especially after the whole season had gone well. I will be cutting it away as I find it and hopefully still end up with a decent amount of mature seed. It’s almost there and the weather looks clear for the...

As I mentioned in another thread, I got bud rot in my seed crop despite my best efforts. Some of the buds I removed weren’t 100 percent destroyed by the fungus yet and appear to have seed near maturity with a hard shell. Even though it doesn’t appear mushy or otherwise fucked up, is this seed...

See that’s the thing — I oriented the hoophouse to avoid incoming prevailing southern winds that would steer rain directly onto my crop. But now I’ve got shitty airflow in the hoophouse! Honestly, this is just agriculture and I needed to vent. I am sure I will still get some seeds out of this...

Looks beautiful!

Oh you didn’t derail anything, it’s just agriculture. I guess I need to remember that!
