crystals don't fall off in the rain.

branches break though. and shit gets muddy. and then the sun comes out and heats everything up and all the damage from the crappapillars starts rotting ... :(
Why does weed after a five inch plus shower look so shitty and lacking in resin? Even aggressive spraying seems to blast off resin heads.

after it dries out you can see the resin heads again usually BUT a 5 inch + shower sounds kinda excessive....

Id like to see the wind covers, its a hard rain now, I had to close my school bus where im staying because the water is coming in on my new floor.
Considering staying up as rippers like to hit in the rain because they think we are "Squishy" and cant deal with rain.

ZOMG the space heater is so nice but I might end up under the a pot tree cover tonight.
 
My ladies outdoors are all fastened and ready to dance with the storm!

Before pics...hopefully the "after" would be just as neat.

Hell yeah my ladies survived round 1. Bring on Round 2! Man first grow so I hope no mold sets in! Im excited. Vaped some fresh Ak47 and it was sweet; dint burn at all and all vapor which was pleasant. The High was complete body high it wasnt even funny! sliding on those slippers trying to re tie down plants made for a total balance workout. How is everyone else dealing with the rain?

Rain should be done by tomorrow. I moved mine indoors into a day room, so it gets ambient/diffused light through the clouds. Half of mine have been pulled already, the ones left have a few weeks to, so can't wait to get them back out in to the sun for a few more weeks!

I have my Hindu kush and mazari outside covered. Does any one no if that is safe. Thier not getting wet an have them covered with a tarp. I heard that the mazar goes tell November. So I'm strching the grow out tell then. An should I flush before harvest. Because I'm still feeding them nutes one more time. An do I put them I'n the dark for 24 or 48 hrs before I cut them ?

Covered is ok, I take my cover off and leaf blower it after the sun comes out (After rain) If the tops touch the plastic they will get brown or burn in the sun.

Just make sure the bottoms are getting plenty of wind and if the sun comes out take those beauties out, plastic is bad for to long, but soaked in water is way more bad.
I also was worried becayse the humidity under the "Dome" of plastic but im harvesting nearly all the tops tomorrow and hitting with nutrients HARD

Yes you need to flush for at least 5 days but if your organic its not a big problem,

**SO I AM TOLD**

Keeping the plastic during the sun is bad by the way can wilt the plant.

I don't think I'd be hitting them hard with nutes if your getting ready to harvest even if you are organic.....not a good idea, unless your planning on them going another week to 10 days. Bat guano too late can cause flavor problems ya know!

lost half my crop to mold after 3 day rain event last year in mid Oct last year-thought it needed 3-4 more days-suffered the consequences of not harvesting early!
 
Ho May Gad im scared! In the end it is really just a matter of trusting nature and plants to work each other out. I have been lucky all summer not having to deal with budworm break outs or mildews so maybe this streak will end soon because of the damn sweet soaking rain.

She will rot and die on her own choice; or she will fight it in the hopes that all your hard work will be rewarded with Gods Bud.

Aftermath Pics tomorrow! I hope the ground gets semi dry.
