Woke up to Bud Rot

Hey Larry dunk your buds in a bucket of 110 degree water give a light swish a few figure eights 30 seconds to a minute give another rinse in cooler water, hang to dry with fans until moisture is gone. I tried this sometime back having not paid attention to mites well enough and had to spray well into flower. It's a pain in the ass but the buds turned out so clean and perfect that I have since "washed" all my crops.View attachment 3777772

Thanks. I had thought of washing it, but time got away from me and it was dry before I had thought of it again. I guess I will have to dig up my old Navy era bong to smoke this. But I have been baking some in bread. I guess I could wash the dry buds if I was going to bake it.

And a quick dunk shouldn't hurt the seeds, right? It's all about the seeds this season.

I've had to cut out rot two more times on the Stinky Rotten Bastard {BST2 #3FP}, so I clipped an extra couple three buds above and below the rot. I've washed them both times. Got rid of almost all the Neem taste. Thanks for the tip.

The 2nd bunch I put in a bug net to keep all the seeds from getting away. Since I was cutting buds off the stem, I couldn't hang them up, so I just hung it in the bug netting.
