This is my first real grow outdoors. I have two Afghan Kush plants and pots that I can move around in and out of the rain. And I tried one in my garden in the soil, obviously I cannot move it. It’s been raining a shit load out here getting sunny days in between. Plant looks fine but I am very worried about the rain affecting it especially because it’s going to start budding in the next month. Any ideas or advise anybody can give me? ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/4X/6/7/5/675549f29e36fdf100c7ce2838dd8b1eb295d838.jpeg) ---

Its still in veg so it will be fine.when it flowers it will be better to move it in away from the rain. Mainly mid to end flower ---

Mid to late flower is where you will be biting your fingernails. Best to come up with a plan _now_ to fight bud rot: you may have to bring inside daily or nightly; depending. ---

PVC frame and greenhouse plastic… under 200$ (and likely under 100$) ---

up. The one you can’t move the greenhouse or a pop up canopy. I’ve heard of some say they give em a shake to get water off the buds after the rain. Maybe after rain a pedestal fan and extension cord as well to get some air moving to dry her off ---
