My Tahoe OG is a few weeks out and it started dumping rain here yesterday. I checked on her this morning and the plant was so top heavy from rain/buds that all the stems are drooping and falling over. What should I do? We are forecasted to have rain the next few days. Can I move her inside and keep her by the window? Please help!

If anyone has additional input please add it!

Oregon got about an inch of rain last night and it's supposed to continue through Saturday!

I'm thinking I'm just gonna throw tarps on my plants an hope that keeps 'em good.

What do you mean by resin? Will I still be able to make hash with my sugar leaves? Is my potency going to go down? The rain was insane for here last night.

Lost another plant today but it was advanced enough to actually make smoke out of it.
I feel that via stakes, netting, fungacide the rest of the crops should survive until they are done.
fingers crossed.
a bit frusterating but keep doing all you can and try to stay positive.

I had to put mine inside, lucky though because I have a big ass south facing window, but the sun hasn't been out much over the last 36 hours, but the humidity has been OK....probably hell 2nite, but forecasted to drop over the next few days. I put everything in pots this year, last year was hell and mold ate my shit up around the Sep rain of '13.

I have some guerilla going too though and I had to check out of curiosity and they seem to be fine. Checking the forecast each day like a pyscho praying for summer to wring out that last bit o sun :joint:

Today [24th] it rained till about noon or so after raining most of the night. Humidity leveled off to about 60% but will rise at dark. I would highly suggest removing the tarp at 1st light unless it is raining of course. My experience with tarps were great, but they tend to create heat and condensation as water collects on the underside of the tarp and then drips back onto plants and your worst enemy has a home to develop....pm.

All I am saying is aerate! With this high humidity we get at night in PDX...it cause headaches if you aren't on top of it:peace:

I am growing on a South facing balcony. I have an awning above that protects from most of the rain but the high winds and sheer volume last night rocked the front of my plant. I shook them off and they got some late afternoon sun and spruced back up. Praying the rain is light the next few weeks and I should be fine. If need be is a South facing window doable if I need to move indoors?

A roof always helps!

Being put inside is fine. My "window" is actually a slider door. I get away with leaving plant's there, because the door is frequently opened and shut except during nighttime, so that helps.

If you go indoors, just be wary of stress situations, like really sunny outside and humidity drops inside, and you can induce shock sometimes. Just common sense stuff, but hell yeah it's doable. A rotation would help too to even out the received sunlight:peace:

looks like it will dry out later into next week, hope it holds

Willamette Valley area has had light rain with the exception of the first day that it rained 1". Right now ~10:30am its much nicer than the last few days w/ a little sun so I'm hoping things start to clear up. I didn't throw a tarp on as the rain hasn't been harsh yet so I didn't see the need. Only thing that does kinda worry me is humidity is at 74% right now. Not going back to 55% until next Wednesday. COuld that be problematic? Got a late start plants are maybe 3 weeks into flower? My OGR White Super Skunk is looking soo frosty compared to the rest outside :bigjoint:
