i dont say that i know what i am doing, or that the soil and the other things i do are good. its far from perfect, but i had a good last grow with it. and as i sayed, the big chunky stuff is mostly on top.

i hoped that it would act as a barrier for flies and to keep it better ventilatet.

And sadly its the best my budget can do right now. 😅

but the seedling keeps growing, very slowly… but i will not ditch it.

Lets see what comes out of it… ^^

[Kloink]

gonna do that next time, thanks.

thats great, yes i had the fan running for a few hours at the first days.

Not doing that again xD… i just hoped i could dry of the soil a bit.

and for the soil itself, its a mixture from tomato soil and garden soil from previous grows. it looks dense and woody but under the top layer its actualy a finer structure that still allows a good drainage.

i can stick my finger completly into it without effort.

Thank you all for your great answers!

i am still a bit confused, but i am getting it… sooner or later ^^

another thing that came to my mind is that what i use is due to the market over here, and my budget, very low grade.

but the clock in the plant is ticking to bloom, so the question is:

On what exactly is the clock in the plant ticking?

Even if that auto plant theoreticly would grow naturaly without any training or stress, is it the energy amount and the growth that the plant has to reach before, or is it only bound to the time before it starts blooming? or a bit of both maybe?

(not that i plan to do so, but it would be nice to better understand the “not stress related” mechanism behind that autoflower.)

And should i maybe go for more light hours, like 20/4?

To give it more power and maybe compensate the small cocolila lamp, the tomatosoil, and the hardware store fertilizer? xD

I did throw out anything with vissible mold on it, and only keep the clean looking parts that where not directly touching the infected ones.

On these, now dried and jarred buds, is nothing to see by now.

I guess if they where infected in a big scale, then the mold would be vissible by now, or not?

[Kloink]

thank you all, based on you help i did a quick harvest and inspected every bud in close.

at least i could safe half of the harvet.
😙

is there something i could do with the affected ones? some guys told me he drowns the affected buds in a solution with water and hydrocloricaccid to kill the mold, before drying them… 😏

sounds a bit like bro science to me, or is it a legit thing to do? 🧐

[Kloink]

D:
ok… thank you both for the quick awnser 🙂

so then i guess its just the bud itself that rots? and it cant spread to my other plant like mildew or mold… wait its still some kind of a fungi and it spread already… as i described with the cloudy stuff…. right? fu.. xD

so what would you suggest? harvest it all asap and try my luck or … the trash can?

and for the future, i guess its a moisture problem then? i had the fan on, but only every second day or so…
