allowing things to ripen.

How in the hell did you get mold with those humidity levels and at the top?
Do you have good airflow? Never underestimate the importance of proper airflow and intake of fresh air.
One thing that Mañ'O'Green touched on, with mentioning temps and humidity, is VPD (Vapor Pressure Deficit).
Keeping VPD in the in the proper range at the different stages of the grow is one of the many keys to a productive grow.

Being an avid organic gardener and farmer for all these years, my recommendation is gonna be to go towards larger pots and a living soil. Feeding your soil and little friends and having the plant tell them what it wants is easier that you giving the plant what you think it needs, at least in my mind.
This is an outstanding forum with helpful and knowledgeable people ready to help you grow the best canna possible.

Welcome!

I don't really know man. I harvested that plant and it is drying now but I found a little bit of it in the big buds that didn't get split up right when I harvested it. I'm wondering what smell this is that I'm getting because I think it's the smell of that bud rot. It's like tennis ball resin at first and then just a distinct smell that is different than any marijuana smell I've ever smelled.
it seems like this stuff will be anywhere if there is any moisture especially when those little red hairs just hold moisture around themselves and also simply in the insides of the thick cannabis Indica buds.
i'm wondering what are some tips to keep it at bay in the ripening phase. Also I've got all the grow tent and air conditioner and dehumidifier items that I could possibly need with a 12,000 and 14,000 BTU portable AC a large dehumidifier and two 4 x 4 chance and one 8 x 4 tent. I've got the AC sitting on the outside of the tents and channeling it into the tents and then I've got a cloud line fan to suck They are out of the tents. I try to defoliate as much as possible it seems like my humidity is a little high even on dry mode while cloud line is on setting eight even setting 10. I've never found a real way to set my equipment and everything up exactly because everybody just seems to be able to keep their temperature is down with the exhaust fans. I use LEDs but I can't keep them down with simply the exhaust fan. Unless I'm doing something wrong

Damn this really! This year I've harvested plants and they smell great and there's Something Happens late in flower and
The smell goes away and it begins to smell like water in greenery foliage or something. Like saturated green foliage. And then something like tennis ball resin. and then what I see is the lowest female reproductive part that is at the bottom of each bud, I will see it browned in the bud will have that same smell and it robs me every single time. I've been going for two years and I don't think that I've harvested a fully mature disease-free plant. it doesn't matter what I do the very next try will bring something absolutely unforeseen when I feel I've read everything there is to read about this plant three times over. I've tried every which way of growing that there is indoors outdoors organic cocoa Deepwater culture Hydro you name it. I don't think it's gonna happen for me. It's like fate or something. i'm serious is mine boggling. And it doesn't help that every single time something goes wrong I won't know what to do but yeah I will do exactly the opposite thing that needs to be done. This attempt has marked me in the worst possible way and I've been in distress over this shit for two years now. I'm sitting here cutting this but it seem to have nothing wrong with it when I cut it down harvested and it's been two days after trimming the big leaves and I go back in to cut the buds off the Stalks that were hanging and every single one of them has the brown female reproductive organ underneath it and they've all given up their smell, that great granddaddy purple smell and they all smell exactly like something awful. They don't look awful yet but I can smell it all over them as I'm cutting them off the stalks to go to the drying rack.
I keep a clean house we don't have animals that go inside and outside and we don't go inside and outside. I've got every piece of equipment and tent and LED light top of the line I don't know what the fuck I'm doing wrong.

Pics would help, it is fairly normal for buds cut a day or two ago to smell like hay or cut grass. Once drying is completed, and the buds cured for several weeks (correctly) the hay smell dissipates, and the turps can shine again.

The discoloration is a concern. If bud rot really is the issue, then I'd suggest looking for this product. I was part of a group test here on the board a year or so ago, I ran silly high rH all thru flower trying to get some rot to pop up, I was well into the upper 60s to mid 70% all the way.

years back I had some weed that hit the jars too early, and didn't get burped down appropriately. After several weeks in the jar it picked up a sour smell. I had sealed the jars with too much moisture and the buds were rotting in the jar.

While there are the natural farmers among us, for most this was and is a learned thing.

i'll post some pics. I'll post some pics of my skittles grow right now. Magnificent looking. I've never seen anything grow this beautiful. I will chart it all the way through. it's just finished it stretch.

here are more pics. oddly enough if I cut everything open and exposed almost every surface it won't do that. And the parts that are doing that will dry up in about a day or less. Is this OK?
