Or wait 4-6 days for dry weather to chop? Chop in the rain. Invest in some decent water proofs n you'll be fine to stand in it all day bro.. I'd give the buds a good shake off before bagging them to go home if they soaked tho. Peace 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Touched loads of things and left a note saying apparently he’d had me under surveillance for the last 10 days and would be be back if I didn’t clear out and fuck off tomorrow. Not one to ignore the “signs” I’m going to get wet tomorrow morning and chop as much as I can carry. Do you mean old bill left you a love letter mate saying you got to leave the spot.if you harvest isn't it sketchy if they got you on camera and can bust you with your crop at home. I thought a seen a flash of light from the side of me at my spot hope it's not a stealth cam getting paranoid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HullFeltMashematician Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 Oh I have decent waterproof gear @ocb mate, patagonia goretex and goretex snow boots with thinsulate lining no fuckin' around! I was more worried about the girls being soaked.. They were piss wet through, half my girls were basically on the floor due to the extra water weight.. @green_machine In the end I chopped as soon as I got there, in a torrential downpour. Just as well, mould had started setting in, it only took 3 days of rain.. Was a sad story in general, but saved the one Lem Og x Frzlnd I was worried about. Anyway full update in diary shortly. Here she is.. I slapped the branches against my leg (gently) to get some of the water out of the buds.. Then layed out on cardboard as soon as I got home, heating on, 2 oscilating fans pointing staright at the branches. Branches rotated each 30 mins for 2 hours. Then they went into the dry box. Best I could do.. Fricken stunk the house out.. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was tying n supporting a couple yday. Peace Picked up the boots in Black Friday sales a while back for £50, steal. Got the Patagonia Pluma Pro for, wait for it, £140! I got a prototype display jacket a long time ago, before the official release of the product, from an outdoor shop that a good friend of mine worked in up north.. The pre release prototype actually has an extra pocket Trousers are just the cheapest goretex pullovers I could find, still not really cheap at £80. I used to do a lot of mountaineering, rock climbing and hiking.. I'm going to get out today and give them all another shake off and make sure they're supported, I did tie them up a bit but admittedly there was so much to do it wasn't a thorough job.

Revive Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 so I just found a mold on a big bud in my drying room, must have missed a bit when I harvested yesterday.. whats the chances of that contaminating the room and putting the rest at risk, could spores attack the other buds if any are flying around in there?? There is no fan blowing in there if that makes a difference.. appreciate some feedback if anyone has experience with this.. fist for me during the drying process Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HullFeltMashematician Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 Popped out today to find mould mould mould.. This rain was very poorly timed.. Even the serious 6 is going mouldy after 3 days of 80%-90% humidity here.. 8+Oz rotten that wasn't rotten a few days back. Going to have to get my ass back out to the campsite and take the lot of what's left early or not, or I might not even break my 15oz target for the year, from near enough 50 plants all I can think is thank F I got the red purps down in time! Got a box of it to trim soon! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
