I've read that it's more likely to get mold on the flower if you allow it to get wet, by rain.
is this true?
how can i prevent it from getting wet?
:peace:

that is just dumb, it would be like me saying all outdoor pot has mold. in bad conditions your buds can get mouldy but not very likely if your plant is getting sunlight and air

You can't do anything, if you put a plastic bag over it how would it dry out if covered? That's just one of the many obstacles of outdoor growing.

If your buds are bunch up together and not getting airflow w/ lots of rain you could get mold or rot. If you can use string and tie em away from each other.

It is bullshit. Bud mold is usually more of an indoor problem. You can get it outdoor, but you'd almost have to induce molding intentionally. Just make sure it gets lots of air, and it's not all cramped up, and you're golden.

Hell yea!

They could get mold if they were fully formed and it rained for a few days and humid as hell where they did not dry out.

Well it could very well be bullshit for where HE lives. I think climate has something to do with it. Nor. Cal is a good climate for outdoor growing... but someone living in a colder wetter climate with not as much good wind can experience mold problems on their outdoor plants.

I think the key is to understand the climate you live in and adjust accordingly. :D
