So, here are pics of my lowrider, no signs of stress here. I think these look great.

This colas on this plant range from 7 to 9 inches and are dense and filling out more and more.







Look at those fat, juicy pistils, I love it when they look like this. This should have like 4 more weeks to go in flower.




Here is the other one. Shorter but more full.

Nice plants. That's huge difference in buds compared to your last cfl grow. The apollo 11 looks especially dank. :yummy:

The a-11 seems to be bouncing back nicely.






Check out the pistsils on this lowrider. Funky looking huh? These lowriders are "growing on me", I kinda like the funky/quirky look they have.

Looks like the girls are doing much better. Have you noticed improvement since you figured out the airflow problem? Glad your girls are all healthy. Take care

Just when you think, "this is going to be THE grow"......damn.
My a -11's just were not looking good after my trip. Too hot and stuffy and I wasn't able to move them around and open it up for a week.

Got out the bifocals today and checked my gals really good and found it......mold. Starting from the bottom of the plant, the main stem, then it was working it's way up the plants.

I was able to salvage the tops of the colas, but I am losing a good bit of my a-11. The lowrider looks very good, don't see anything going wrong there. So all is not lost, and I do have some buds drying of the apollo, about 1 1/2 weeks early though.

Awww... :petting: Sorry to hear that POMH. I lost a few outdoor plants to the brown gooey mess a couple seasons ago, it almost made me cry :frown:. Watch the lowrider very closely from now untill harvest.

Are you pulling fresh air into the room? What is the cfm rating on your exhaust fan? Do you have an oscillating fan in the room? What is the average Relative Humidity and Temp of the room?

I have fans blowing in and one fan pulling hot air out. But this has been an ongoing problem, it is in the basment and this summer has been hot and humid. Winter grows may not be as difficult. I will get this problem fixed!! But I do believe it started when I went on vacation and it was all stagnant in there.
My temps stay around 80 to 85 with the door open, while I was away it probably got way too hot in there.
The lowriders are not showing any signs, they still look great.

The mold like I said started at the stem where the dirt and stem meet. It is moving up the plant but has not affected the entire thing by any means. I only chopped the worst looking one and I am watching the other and will chop as soon as it looks like I have to. I guess that is ok?

Took these today.

80-85 is considered pretty warm, but if it's more arid than it is humid it isn't much of a problem. Do you have a dehumidifier handy?

I've never recovered anything from mold, in my case it has always been too ruined to recover anything worth smoking or making hash/oil with. But I guess if all of the mold has been picked off and the room has been aired out and cooled down the mold might not spread anymore. But then again you can never be too sure that you've gotten all of the spores off of the plant. Just constantly check the centers of every flower from the bottom up, and if it continues to spread, get it out of there it might spread to the lowrider.

Thanks, I would say humid, not airy. I saw these small dehumidifiers online, like for closets. I think I may get one.

I will be checking them all very closely everyday.

Chopped an A-11 today, beginning of the 8th week. At least the trichs were like 90% cloudy, only saw a clear one here and there.
But they were saved from the mold so I am lucky for that.

It is looking great, just starting getting frosty, and I have a 14 inch cola, I would love to see that thing fill all the way in.
