Still at it, have two Rasoli and one Panjshiri still in the ground with lower halves going (took the tops down as they were close to done and I couldn’t monitor mold issues 15 or 18 feet up anyway). The Dakshinkali all need more time, like until Thanksgiving, tallest is 19 feet, holy crap. Everything went through two frosts without any issues but caterpillars have hit them somewhat despite being so late in the season. Never easy growing here!

Panjshiri flower, it doesn’t look all that resinous but trim sampling was pretty potent -

And then there were three, hope these Dakshinkali make it through the next couple of cold nights, because the weather looks great for them to pack on the resin after that -
Took down the rest of the Rasoli today, I’ll be in trim jail a couple of days with this all this to contend with… really impressed with the mold resistance on these two plants, there are flecks of rot here and there, but given how nasty the weather has been this fall, I’m surprised not to have lost half of them -

These are incredible! I'm blown away these are here in Massachusetts, especially with the wet summer.
You wrote "1:3 peroxide spray every couple of days" for problems. I was wondering if you used anything else?
At various points I used B.t., Monterey Complete and Spinosad to deal with caterpillars - which came on much later than usual. Just a weird growing season.
Still at it. Made it through a 26 degree night on Saturday with moderate leaf damage but no harm to flowers. Probably coming down Sunday as Monday night is supposed to drop to mid 20s again and I’m not sure they can handle another hard frost. Not a spec of botrytis. Pretty sticky, smells range from floral to mint/camphor, definitely gonna make me some hand-rolled Temple Balls -

Are you near water or using frost blankets? Growing this late is impressive.
No frost blankets. Within 175 yards of the water on the South Coast - it has a bit of a moderating effect if the wind is from the west or south, but when it is from the NW it doesn’t help all that much. 28 degrees last night, probably the same tonight and I’m pretty certain they will come down tomorrow as it will likely dip under 25 tomorrow night.
It’s a wrap! Chopped the three Dakshinkali today because I’m sure it will drop below 25 in my yard tonight and I don’t want the flowers to freeze. The latest I’ve had plants in the ground and also the latest flowering plants I’ve grown. One good thing is zero rot, maybe that’s a consequence of flowering so late as everything else was affected to some degree. Flowers have a nice minty/camphor/eucalyptus scent and are sticky although sparse. Glad I’m not hosting Thanksgiving because I have no time to cook while serving out my hard labor sentence in trim jail lol

Yup, you're gonna be at it for some time, judging from the size of those trees. Well done!

How’d they turn out?
Hung it all to dry out and be turned into hash, will sift it some cold night out in the garage.
