Hello all, just figured i would drop in and share what you all have helped me grow! (Thanks!:bigjoint:) This is the little lady that could! She has had less than ideal conditions to grow in and has managed to produce some REALLY SMELLY BUDZ:weed: She has been flowering for about 9 weeks now and is the lone survivor of 4 due to the recent hurricane :sad: (I should have saved them but my family came first). No nutes just water and some molassas. My patience are growing thin, I have enjoyed watching her grow but her days are numbered(exactly how many days im just not sure but im watching :-P). Any and all feedback and advice is welcome. Once again thanks

Everything I read about Sour D says its a long flowering time due to sativa dominance... this little lady has been following since late July... How much longer should i allow her to stink up the neighborhood. Im in no rush to chop her I really want to maximize her potential. I know I will enjoy what she has to offer now...... will i benefit by waiting longer to harvest?

I am beginning to worry now... This morning went to check on my lady and found some bud rot (small spots on a few budz) and a worm...I removed the bad budz. with all the rain (wettest Sept in NJ history) and fear of losing budz to worms, think im gonna have to chop her sooner than I would like. I didn't have time to examine her throughly but found 1 worm... does this mean there are more? More rain in forecast so she probably won't dry out, I don't want to lose what little she has worked so hard to produce.... should I harvest or cross my fingers and pray for better weather? All advice is greatly appreciated!.. thanks

Well I did not chop her and im soooo glad i didnt, took her inside for inspection and to try to let her dry out. lost some bud due to worms and rot but hey experience is the best teacher(along with hours of reading threads about pot):-P.The weather has been quite pleasant the past 2 weeks and she has been loving it:clap:. My main colas have put on some weight not quite double in size but huge difference. fan leaves beginning to yellow and trichs getting cloudy. She is finally showing signs of maturing:leaf:.
