Bad Harvest

I tried to sell Bubba today, but no one wanted it. No surprise there since it's all covered in mildew. For now I'll have to pick out some of the more unaffected buds and simply throw away the rest. I estimate that I'll lose at least half of the batch, leaving me with 400 grams of Bubba instead of 800 if I'm lucky. That cuts into my total yield dramatically, and my profit for this harvest will be close to nothing if everything else still sells. And there's no guarantee that I can still sell the remaining Bubba or the other strains either.

I watered the HPS Veg lightly so as to avoid overwatering. The temperature in the veg is cold, so it won't add too much humidity even if I water heavily, but I don't want to stunt the plants. There's a lot more space between branches and underneath the canopy after I trimmed and cloned yesterday. A few of the trees look like they've been trimmed too much, but given that I still have a few days to set up the Master to receive these plants, it shouldn't be a big deal.

MH Veg is progressing rapidly. I trimmed all the Bubbas and left only the top three branches on all of them. I haven't trimmed the other strains yet because I want to clone them first. I only have a few weeks before I have to flower this rotation, so I have to be careful about the timing. If I clone too soon, the clones might be underdeveloped and won't survive. If I trim too late, these trees won't have adequate time to recover before they have to be flowered.

Not much going on with the clones yet since they were just made yesterday. The older Phantom clones that survived the mildew attack are also showing a total reversal. All of them were dipped in fungicide, and I also left some of the cloning water in the tray to soak the rockwool. One of the clones actually rooted, which is a good sign that these clones are going to make it to the net cups.

I have this strong feeling that not using Phosphoload was a mistake. The quality seemed to come out a lot better than usual in the Master, and without PM I would've been able to sell all of it without any problems.
