Indica on the US Gulf Coast?

You sweet precious dumbass, i expected nothing less lol

Yes, sativa will do better with rot. But everything will rot when it rains every day. The problem I run into is the short days in summer leads to flowering when the rainy season is still going on. I've been trying to start later in the summer to time the flowering closer to the end of the rainy season.

problem with sativas is they flower long and after october is a risky period of daily rains....

@mudballs
Your plants look great! They look like they're sitting on your porch. Do you plant them in the ground at some point?

That causes bud rot

Yep, it does trap moisture. Not to mention that most of the county law out here in the sticks are still looking for pot. In my county they told me they were not taking anyone to jail, but were chopping what they found.

now if u wanna keep eyes in the skies out, and also keep them from the direct sun......tarps do work nicely.....just don't cover them with it....once the rain shower has gone through go outside and shake the bush to push water out.....

My rainy season is in the summer. It gets real dry once the rain stops, usually in early September. Most years you don't have to worry about frost until just before Christmas.

Another thing I have tried is finding strains that have a hair trigger when it comes to flowering. I lost most of my growing infrastructure in Hurricane Michael, but I used to veg under really long light hours, then toss them out in early June. My longest day of the year is 14 hours 10 minutes, so lots of time they would flower right away.

It's getting to me about midnight tomorrow night. The radar said we got eight inches the other night. But a five gallon bucket in my garden said it was closer to 10. The river can't take another night like that and stay in it's banks.

I grow Darwin Dope. I have flowering plants out now I haven't seen in three or four weeks. As long as it rains every week or so, I figure they are alright. I do lose up to half of my spring crop occasionally. But seeds are free and soil mix is cheap.

There was a guy on here from OZ named Bob who grew under little plastic pup tent type setups. Something low pro like that might work.

You can get "some" through to harvest.19 miles from the coast on the east side for me.I'd toss some outside here and there a few years back.Some would rot some wouldn't.All up to the weather we get.

i personally get a lot of sativa's and when they go, they go......had one start flowering in June and it lasted all the way to the end of July to early August. I was gonna have one be done last year bout september, but no......had an idiot think he could reach up and try to smell it and snapped it......boy i was pissed...it was a nice looking Indica too.....

The last time we had that much rain, the river was a lot higher starting out. It rose 12 feet in 12 hours. It's got under the house, but not in it. Do not want to do that again. My pond (dammed slough) still has algae on it due to all my mushroom compost floating from under the house into the pond. The river did get up high enough to flow into the slough and cover the driveway this time, but no real damage. I just park on the hill and wade in.

eh we don't get that much rain here.....bout the only time we do is during Hurricane season, but it has to hit towards brownsville to get high amounts. When harvey hit the coast, we got about six inches at my house. I'm usually ok cause my house sits on a hill......glad i picked that spot.....

@Buds N Brew

I forgot to mention my experience with new strains. My old strains (1980-90's) never had bud rot issues. They flowered from September to November. I would plant in March and they didn't early flower. Most were from local growers who I had bought pot from, so they had been grown here since the 70's.

I stopped growing from 2004-16, and lost all my saved seeds in a tragic tripped breaker disaster. Friends on here from the PNW gave me some killer seeds. Some partial packs of bought seeds, but most their own making. The strains were used to the long light hours and the first year lots of them would flower early. Like June and July early. Each year as I've planted the next generation, the early flower has been less. I'm up to f4's on the Ass Cheese (cindy's blue cheese x donkey kong).

So if you ever had the chance to pick up some local seeds from an old timer. . . .
