I'll be happy when these are done. I found two tiny caterpillars on one of the plants. Not a big fan of bugs on my buds. Love the control of indoor.

Definitely miss the indoor control factor… I’m becoming a full time savant at the art of search & seizure of freak’n bud rot… cat or otherwise.(though all 4 of my girls have had some effect, only 1 caused reaction as to pulling to date) Never gave the dang issue a thought till outdoor. (Not to say you can’t get rot indoors if stupid reigns)… but you can’t beat the light source of outdoors vs indoors, so with that said, I‘ll just stay the course this year and learn from those on this blog that been there and done that, but that dang bud rot is now the obvious enemy #1… wetter season than normal or not be damned! 8-)

I know it should be exciting but I find this time of year really tough, been looking at the weather forecast multiple times a day trying to figure out how much longer I can push my plants before I lose everything to the rain and mold (I have a number that are past clear trichs but not quite to sufficient amber). Trying to balance it by taking some and leaving some but somedays I feel like I need a support group.
Most of mine have been “in the window” for a bit now, but I want SWELL I want BULK. I want thick-ass amber-crusted buds.

I don’t much subscribe to the clear/cloudy/amber school. I think a plant only gets better with age(to a point, obviously).

I’m going to to my damn best to hold till 10/13/21 or later.

Those girls got some time left based stricy on the pistols. My “White Wedding” looks like that too. Thinking at least (2) more weeks maybe (3). The weather gods aren’t calling for a freeze anytime soon so there’s that! Lol
Totally agree! I had a late start. Ran into challenges, hoping I can reach the magical Halloween Harvest. Luck to you!

Adding hoops and greenhouse plastic over my enclosure next year damnit! Never again !

I worked all weekend through the rain and It snapped and of course peppered with mold now.
Bro in that top pic, you have a wormhole at the branch/stalk. That is what weakened your stalks. Fish the worm out with wire, inject BT into the holes. Where there's one, there's many. Look for sawdust like clumps at stalk/branch location. Bet you'll find more.
