The final solution- sometimes sheet happens😕

Hello everybody☺

Today for the first time in my life, I must destroy one of my plants.

It's that massive haze that hermaphrodite on me.
It has been on quarantine for about two weeks, and it starting to get some kind of fungi or mold on it.

Mold in your cannabis is bad for your health, don't take any chances with your health.

It's breaking my heart to throughout this beautiful plant. But there nothing I can do about it now😢

So sad... such a waste.... well, at least you caught it on time before it spread to your other plants. could be worse.

I know that really sux to have to kill one of your babies. Been there, done that many times but you did absolutely the right thing. Spider mites, mold and male plants must be removed immediately to stop contaminating the others.

Keep the ground clean of plant debris, keep fans on and monitor for an adequate low level of moisture, and some UV irradiation with a cheap lamp in your grow space won’t hurt either.

Good advice! Following.

Yhe, the humidity this week was extremely high.
I never tried the UV lamp thou

Uv light does help!

I'll try it, thanks☺

No thank you!

Perfect call! And you can still blow it into oil. And humidity and temps help prevent mold!

Cannabis for the win. So industrious!

No, no. You cant do oil with that, do that and you'll and up with mold extraction...

Mold isn't carried into the oil.... Yes you can.

Yes, make oil! Let the lady give back after all youve cared for her.

Oil... Oil... Oil!

While mold isn't soluble in butane, if there is mold on your plant then there is mold in your oil. You can run material with mold but you need to have a filter(10 micron or smaller) to trap any spores that may have been knocked loose from the flow of butane or the pressure. Usually a health person can smoke BHO with mold in it and not even notice it. The problem lies in the fact that many patients are using this as medicine, many of them have compromised immune systems or lungs, so they turn to DABS to limit healthy concerns surrounding combustion.

Besides the temp of the dab rug is enough to kill any spores as well. But so far I have never seen or tasted mold in blown oil. And in Oregon it's hard to avoid mold.

You did the absolute right thing of course...I remember smoking some moldy herb,
The taste is like smoking a mildewed tee shirt.
Awful.
I hope you gave it a respectful burial:(

I will, tonight😕

Qué lindas plantas Ojalá pudiera tenerla aquí conmigo prometo que las cuidaría mucho :3

Hang in there pal. You've got this. Fuck Baphomet lol.

Thanks.

Muy hermosa planta

im sorry for that loss, hopefully enough others to keep the supply running :)

The bud looks tastey! Sorry you had to kill it, but you did the right thing. The UV light will also work for the molds and mildews. It actually kills everything, but always wear UV protective gloves, eyewear, and clothing the covers all skin. Looking at your pictures it looks like something in the enviorment is wrong. Temp too high? Humidity too high? Or watering too much. These are the things I have noticed when I see a leaf like this.

You can also use the UV light your bud during harvest and be sure every spore and all organisms are dead. I have a buddy in California that UV sterilizes all of his bud at harvest.

I relocate the plant from the main grow room after it started to hermaphrodites. The humidity in the other room was high. Also, the room was unsterilized to, I guess it didn't help either...

Yes uvb radiation can boost the THC levels.

oh nooo sad to see her go but best to get rid of her before she harms the other beauties any ideas on what may have caused it? for the herm prob interrupted night cycle?
