It's been raining for 2 days, and it looks like rain for 2 more days. Will this create a mold problem with my plants? I live in eastern PA and the weather is about 65 degrees for a high and 48 for a low.

you see the bud worms eat the buds and make dead spots where rot can start and then you get a couple days of rain and bam.. All that dead matter had turned into a rotten mess.. If you have inspected your buds pre rain to make sure you dont got any worms your plants shouldnt mold.
seems like all i've been saying latley is abud worms..
i found them in every cola i had this year

Those worm must be having a grand time "party over here woo woo, trichomes almost the size of our head"....lucky.

i put my plants in recycling bins and i try to make it impossible for bugs (budworms etc) to get in my plants. Its actually a pretty fun game. ive used the flip slide of ductape, an overhanging cliff, rope doused in insecticide(sorry envirolovers). I try and get more and more creative each time and it actually seems to be working. But i have had one or two which i suspect may have been born outta the soil and therefore escaped my fury

I haven't had any mold in my buds yet or any bud worms or rot....Just on the leaves..I hate the F'ing stuff...Been battling it for two weeks. I'm almost to the point of chopping it two weeks early just to stop the progression.

Harvested four of six plants already due to cool, damp nights. Found one moldy bud on each plant. Thank god they were 98% done, could have stretched it one more week but not worth the headache. Do have one sativa out there but she is starting to fall down, buds are 75% done, all of her fan leaves are yellowing. Gonna pull her thursday. Do have one blueberry still rocking, man does she stink, smells like Frankenberry cereal!!
