So yea, woke up with ice in the buckets this morning, 30F- and with nothing but rain in the forecast, It looks like my season has run its course. Can't keep chopping out rot and stressing about what's next. Always better hanging.
Got a new fan last night for better airflow in my 3rd space for drying. So it like this be.
Try not.
Do, or do not.

What about a compromise? Do you have a few plants left? Maybe take two and leave one, that's what I'm thinking of doing....
i have i think 6 left. i already chopped like four of em down and got some decent smoke. but these ones left are my biggest ones. sativas. three of em have huge hand size nugs that im worried about getting rot. i checked em yesterday and didnt see any

First outdoor grow this year in western mass... had a few indoor harvests already. Despite the challenges of pests and weather, in general I found the outdoor grow much easier and less work than indoors. Learned a lot and got some pretty decent bud. Also got a few seeds as one plant hermied but I'm kinda happy about that cuz the weed is really good. WHite gold and sour diesel pics. Best bud I've grown yet for sure. Thought I was gonna lose these plants altogether in Sept and decided to move them to an indoor space with 800w x 2 lights, and kept 'em on 12/12 and they really seemed to like that and they also seemed to mature faster and gain weight. About a month indoors and they were ready to chop.

Yeah, I hate rot, I know there's more there, and I gotta find it before j do chop, branch by branch inspection.. So maybe chop one and leave one, gotta weigh it out. If you have to sacrifice 1/4 to 1/3 of the plant to end up with your target harvest, is it worth it? The.old glass half full/half empty thing. Its tough. Maybe top your plants and let the.bottoms finish off, you've got a couple options....

@moonman33 i cant get autos down at all. everytime i try to grow em i get them to germinate nd then they wont grow at all. its so fucking weird
I have had like 3 do that to me. Just stop and die. They seem to be super sensitive to soil and I think the cleanest stuff with no nutes is how you have to start them or they just don’t go anywhere.

it is frustrating I am going to try coast if Maine soil as I’ve seen people get good results with it.
