So our forecast called for rain late tonight and I rigged a 15x11ft tarp to cover my side garden. But woke up this morning soaked by rain that showed up a day early, BEFORE I got to rig the tarp OVER the side garden....
With 3-4 wks left and the supposed upcoming wks of 65f+ days I'm gonna rig the tarp and finish em hard...
Current Boulder County weather is 46f` and it's "misting"!!!
Though you'd never know with a roof on the greenhouse, what a mental relief that has been! FUNNY to look back and think about the seasons of hard work to get to this point yet the hardest part has yet to come. Indoor, greenhouse and outdoor harvest bang bang bang it out! What else can ya do don't wanna be a lazy grower gotta get paid!
You guys wouldn't believe the stories I've heard of this seasons crop-trocities here on the front range as well as western slope!
Peeps are talking like it's gonna be a dry season or something cause EVERYONE is losing big %'s based on mold and our seemingly short season!
Hope everyone stays safe and dry!
Keep on your game and your harvest will reward you!

Thanks brother I'm shaking em 4-5 times a day with the wet weather. As soon as I see dry ground I'll know it's warm enough to tarp off without having to keep some fans on em. The greenhouse is loving life, next year I see many carports in my future!
There is mad weed out here and SO much of the big MMED MMJ greenhouses are located in Boulder and surrounding counties.
I've heard of entire greenhouse washouts based on building on the swamps/flood plains! I've heard of widespread premature harvest due to improper greenhouse build-out/lack of ventilation leading to soaring humidity in last 4 wks bloom!
I've even recently witnessed large scale (minimum 50+ lights or 30x90ft greenhouses) indoor and outdoor/greenhouse dryroom issues leading to molded product and flash drying basically an all out weed war hell to STOP the MOLD and STILL SELL the PRODUCT!
I was "consulting" as to how to stop the mold so now they have a couple Ozoninators recirculating air in the dry rooms holding 50-100lbs of premature synthetically grown outdoor!
WATCH OUT COLORADO THERE'S GONNA BE SOME SAD WEED COMING YOUR WAY ON THE DISPENSARY LEVEL!

the first year i grew outside they came and did an inspection around early september.Anyone here had to deal with an inspection at a time when they couldn't move or chop their plants
i took everything not planted in the ground, put it in a uhaul, and parked it a ways away.
i closed up the greenhouse and prayed.
they noticed it on the walk through but didn't say anything. they haven't done an annual inspection since.
i got lucky though.

Similar scenario but not really, since I've started growing and being limited to a very tiny area, my plants sit next to the walkway that leads to my gas meter. The guy has never said a word he just comes in and takes the reading and then leaves. I know he sees them for there is no getting around it, for the first year I was a complete mess thinking that anytime things were going to change and not for the better.
Thinking he either puffs himself or doesn't care {knows better} and this year was no better with the construction crew working for 3.5mths on the streets around me, they even had lunch breaks on my property and there's no way in hell you could miss 3 7ft plants.
So with the harvest I've gotten not only higher but my hair has gotten greyer as well.
Changes are coming for next year

And to provide some positive vibes to fight my crappy fungus thread (so happy the plant was well away from the main garden!)...

I have to admit I am terrified of any fungus issues on the deck, as I work 12 hour days 4 days a week and my wife is busy running the coffee shop we just bought we can't give the girls the attention they deserve
I wish I could speed up the flowering cycle!

Looks like someones hard work is finally paying off. How good does it feel to harvest your first grow of dank-ass flowers?
