I figured it out, 1 of my plants had mould. But the rest is fine. I need to work on my Humidity in my next grow. I will probably try and get a portable air conditioner

Wouldn't air flow fix your problem? I could be mistaken, but I thought humidity could be high as long as there are a couple of fans to keep things moving. That and don't let the canopy get too dense.

It's because I had so many plants in a 4x4 setup, there was 11 plants in there and it was totally rammed in there and I was watering them 2 Litres of feed every 48 hours. I had fans and everything in there. I guess the buds were just so dense it went a bit mouldy towards the end. I even cut the canopy back as much as i could and trimmed them up a bunch in week 3 of flowering and it still didn't help. The buds were too thick and too dense and a small case of mould broke out but only on 1 plant. I'm Pretty lucky to be fair because the rest of it could of gone funny if i didn't harvest when I did

I've learned my lesson, I will never do 11 plants in a 4x4 tent again. The most I will do is probably 6 or 7 next time. They didn't have enough air flow because it was like a jungle in there, I had 2, 10 inch fans running and a rhino filter sucking away the hot air. It still wasn't enough. It was down to the fact I did too many plants in a small space. But luckily only 1 of the plants got mould and it wasn't even a bad case, it was just a tiny little bit of mould. And all of that mouldy shit is gone now I got rid of it so it's not a problem anymore. you live and learn. Experience is the dearest teacher :)

16 plants in 2 gallon pots in my 4 x 4's. Never had mold in 20 years. You can do it, don't give up :eyesmoke:

Don't make bushes. 4 colas on each :cool:

Do you use dry ammendments or liquid nutes?

Dry amendments can have a dust that covers a lot. I put 1/8 inch layer of diatomaceous earth on my topsoil (for thrip control) and Ooh man.. dust on everything inside my tent
