Thought i Took a shot of amnesia lemon haze as i dont think she has had a showing this year
But i didnt so she still a no show lol
It was purple crack 
One of my latest seed germination plants
And its playing catch up
She a mighty fine structure and huge leaves healthy green
Couldnt move her i just ripped the side of the bag attempting to
Must be rooted into the ground through the bag
So i threw a sheet of plastic over her with a branch of a tree holding it up off the plant
Ill be keeping a close eye on her that’s for real

Its gunna be a wet damp finish to the harvest window
After Easter the weather gunna clear for about 4 days
Probably not enough ummmpf in the sun to get things dried out again
Taking its jolly time to mature in trichomes colour
There past the clear stage
And if i had too i could live with voodoo how it is now
I just know it could be better
All of them could some will some wont

Thanks @Caligurl
Well ive woken up and its not raining but very overcast and damp
Need sun 
for a week
One more week would be all i needed i recon
I get this inconvenient wet damp few days evey year just before there ripe for the picking
Been a brilliant end to summer and start of autumn 
/winter otherwise
Horrible watching those colas going from there glory and beauty to rugged old and limp just because it has a few of these wet damp days
Oh well
Not to mention the back breaking work dragging these 56 lt bags around (15 gal)
With big flowering plants out the top
Find places to accommodate them under cover thats dry and still gets light and air
Thanks for your support

Good morning
Well the opertunity arose tonight at 8pm to sample strawberry cough
It seemed spicy maybe bit hotter on the throat than other strains
Ment business from the first toke through the mighty
Got a cloud of smoke/vape that i dont see as much of on 193 usually
I did cough a bit
It did get me quite high for an hour or so now at 11pm I’m coming down face a bit numb
I did get the munchies a little not to bad
For early smoke I’m happy with that
And that was 10 days ago now
So no doubt the flowers have grown more mature in that time
So if that had to come down anytime soon it wouldn’t be a complete waste time
Interesting stone strong
Have you tried it ?
Have a good day
Cheers

Home from work after my 25 hr shift
Got another 72 mls close to 3 inches
Over night and today
Everything damp and dark
Went round checked my plants
Sure enough molds moving in more and more
Jack herner looking good
Strawberry cough got small blobs of mold in small patches
Peanut butter breath
Looks ok so far
Here is a shot of strawberry cough with peanut butter breath behind it
Sour diesel looks solid in these conditions so far
Still got 2 more days of this rain and damp conditions to go before we start seeing it change for the good
Im holding my breath
Ch well

Just sampled an early piece of ultimate 6 days dry nil days cured
Smooth through the mighty gentle ride was a mix between relaxed and motivated
When i get stoned i like to get in touch with my back and body injuries and strengthen areas of imbalances
Ultimate was able to take me there
Expanding awareness what i need to do and focus on
To get my body stronger and out of constant pain its been in for the last few years and learn to trust my body again
Thats been a long time 
As im coming down i feel it behind my eyes and centre
Just want to close my eyes now
Thanks @Skyfishbud
Cheers
Think the ultimate was yours

@Blackmoon good morning my brother, I sure hate to hear that you got some beautiful plants going there. And they hit that stage where you want to let them go another week or two but unfortunately the weather is not going to let you don’t look like. Sounds like a couple of them might be resilient to all this. But looks like you’re going to have to harvest most of them a little early.

@Blackmoon I was wondering if you had ever smoked a sour diesel before? I have one that I got from ilgm probably 3 years ago I got the seeds gave most of the other seeds away now but still have the same sour Diesel going I started over two and a half years ago been cloning off the same one. I really like it seems to help my arthritis a little the main reason I’ve kept it going I guess. But it makes a good strong plant and a really nice fat bud s dense. Usually produces a good amount of weight.
That’s it in the middle the other two are the chupacabra and a Kool-Aid breath. That’s all I have going in the vegg room now. I’m trying to get away from cloning and start growing some of these seeds lol

Hi there @RPgrower
Ive never grown sour diesel before this year
One of @DefNSmokn aj sour diesel
Only one survived my crazy germinating stage then i wasn’t sure for a bit if it was male or female 
Then i was stoked it chose to be a girl 
plant 
And your right its has a chunky cola dense ans so far no rot
so i cant wait til im smoking some
Apparently the founder of foundation training used sour diesel to help him explore his body issues and went on to help a lot of people from athletes to people in pain and limited mobility
I definitely cant wait but have too
Home from work again 2 days off
Still raining 44mls rain over night
50 ml is 2 inches
Is wet and its constant
Never been so consistently wet in a harvest window
Ill wait for some dry weather and as you say pull them early
The samples so far are getting me high
I know they could be better
Is what it is
Im just going around plucking off rotting buds in the meantime til the weather clears.
Guess theres a lot of outside growers here in nz in the same boat 
The whole country is getting wet this easter
Oh well
Cheers

I love growing out doors and really for now anyway its my only option
And i love growing in 56 lt fabric bags ( 15 gal )
But there so dam heavy to lug around and fit through door ways and down banks and up stairs for this young pup when this weather im having happens in the harvest window
Thinking seriously growing them in way smaller bags and just more of them in future
Less yield per bag but way easier to move around in these conditions

Well here is number one harvested
Strawberry cough 
In the background of one shot you can see all my smaller plants that got saved from getting wet because there in small bags
I gave them several h202 baths
Just to make sure they really clean before they start drying
Taken ages just to do one plant in the rain ofcourse
Oh well
Commitment to the cause

By the end of daylight today i got
Strawberry cough
Peanut butter breath
And my year old purple haze i gas lanterned over last winter
It looks like a dogs 
dinner really
Lots of the bud had to get tossed
It cleaned up better after a bath of h202
Was a good experiment and learned a bit doing it.
Probably wont do it again though
Took most the day to wash 3 plants
And most importantly dry them off well
Using my wife hair dryer powered by the generator fan and a electric heater warming the room
Start again tomorrow
Ment to stop raining
Tomorrow that be nice

Thank you kaptain
Yep not the finish i had in mind
Cant do trichome checks now
Just gotta get them in and in fast
Cut 2 small stems on strawberry cough today when i chopped her that was pollenated
Laughing budda and Cinderella
Stink
I checked and double checked my chop point
Any way i put then in clonex and pur them in my cloner see if they keep going long enough to mature the seeds
Cant be too far off ready now
See what happens

Woken this morning and the rain has stopped
Very misty and damp
Cheers
Cant help feel disappointed 
how the end of the grow season has turned out
But thats how the dice roll growing outside i guess 
Good way to find out what strains and genetics do grow in such conditions
Slowly 
over the years ill have a base line of strains that i can know will fair anything that could come there way in the harvest window
Mean while just gotta take the good with bad
True pioneering spirit
