Found same here good luck.

Could I go ahead and harvest this whole branch before it all dies ? Some buds have rot and most of the hairs have turned red . The rest of the plant still needs a week or two I believe .

I would

Here is a few recent cold, faint, windy. Bud rot, possible seeds forming and a branch that needs help I think.. Any input welcome.

Just pulled my third spot of rot out of my blueberry X headband. Supposed to have 3 straight sunny days (knock on wood) followed by 3 days of rain. I think I will harvest the blueberry headband (about 2 weeks early ) at the end of this sunny streak along with my blueberry (probably ready) and critical kush (week early). Then I get to worry for another week about the GDP, bluedream, and sour D.

What was an amazing year has turned to shit!!

Pulled the tarp off the girls this morning, and sprayed them down with actinovate. Used a step ladder for the tops, and noticed two of the tallest buds were matted down a a bit brown where the tarp rested on them. Should I remove those two buds?

On west side of state, low of 39F tonight. That was my hunch about snipping those two, not going to risk it.

I did that with mine too, a couple tops rested against my cover. I clipped it down an inch below brown material. Of course where i grow we had humidity around 15-20day/ 50-60 night so mold is a slow process.

half inch of rain and HIGH winds in my neck of the woods. Knocked down 4 plants that weren't ready yet. They weren't out of the ground just knocked over onto the ground, that's the way it is up,in Northern Maine the tap root grows sideways and it wasn't broken . Staked them back to upright and gave them a nice drink of water to settle everything back down. I don't believe they were damaged but we will see in a couple of days. Did break some branches though and they will dry nicely in the next couple of days and go into the vap pile

well not all is lost here I got caught up with the mold pita, but no new spots today an weather is looking dry an sunny for a few days glad I didn't chop early

So i cut and hung a plant 3 days ago...i went to check on them today and the bids seem to be already dry and the stems crack when i bend then...RH had been between 47-54 percent and temp has been between 74-77 degrees in my drying area...is it possible it can be ready for jars after 3 days?? This is my first time drying and curing

That sounds really fast....did you have a fan blowing on them? You want a cure to be slow as possible.

No fan but i have the carbon filter going with a littke negative pressure...i have to dry in my basement and cant have the smell

This will be the first one cut...I wanted to give it a few more weeks but if anything happens to this one, I'm gonna have zero bud going into this year.

Shes 2 weeks from close to done. But I dont know how long I can push my luck. I'm down to about 30% of my total crop remaining. And that's scraps and pieces of what's left after cutting out mold and rot.

Looks like Edward Scissorhands and Freddy Kruger had a dance fight in my garden...

I have a crazy backup plan that just might work...we will see if it blows up in my face or saves the season.

Of course I'll report in either way.

I’m in ma. I’ve been debating calling the cops. I’m not sure wtf they could do tho? I really don’t know what to do.. even if I catch them on camera there’s no way the cops will get them in time. It’s probably a friend of the person who did it. Mood is disturbed atm. I have work off on Wednesday and my car will be in the shop, I’m hoping I’ll catch them then. Walking around with a pit in my stomach.

Fuck. Do you report it, or sleep in your yard. God forbid I catch a ripper in my greenhouse. I'd probably cave his skull in.

I bought a baby monitor for my garden so that I will hear if anyone gets in. I had a dream last night that someone stole 3 of my plants. Shows where my heads at I guess.

For what it's worth, that is a very well taken picture. What strain/where'd you buy?

Hey thanks. That's Amnesia Haze, I think I bought it from a retailer that sells other companies genetics, so not sure whos AH strain it actually is. Crazy that an 80% sativa is the one closest to done.
