Ok guys, uk outdoor grow...

The sun has been out most of the week and no rain untill lastnight when it rained all night and been patchy rain all day... The sun isnt out much to dry them :(

They are about 1-2 weeks away from being chopped and had my fingers crossed the weather would hold out buts its not been...

Other than cover them, not really anyway to do that is it going to cause me problems with mold/rot if the weather stays the same?

They are ment to be quite mold resistant but if they are constantly wet then its enevitable it will occur right? Should i chop early??

Thanks dudes..

It DEPENDS, I would say, if you start seeing problems, then take em'. But not until you start having trouble.

check every bud you possibily can,,it will start from the inside and by the time you see it ,you end up having to chop off a nice bud..i wouldnt say chop them early unless theres mold every where..but if the weathers bad then i would be checking often and be shaking them off when ever i could..

Yea ive been shaking them every morning as much as i can and checking every day if not twice a day....

It rained all night lastnight and is going to rain all day today... NOT GOOD.

From them being soaked, how long till/if i see any problems that might occur?!

Im hoping that as the buds arent fully swollen and closed yet (if you know what i mean) that the water should be able to escape pretty easily..

FINGERS CROSSED!

Munk, just checked em out....top man. Going to get one today.

Question now is, 1 of them is in a pot so easily moved...the other one tho is in the ground :-/

As they are about 2 weeks away from finishing is it going to shock the one in the ground if i dig it up and put it in a pot to finish?! It is big.. about 4" by 4" so will just fit in the green house.

If it will shock it, is it worth doing or should i just leave it and hope it holds out?

Cheers guys
