Mind if I join? I'm tuning in from Silver Falls area. Any idea where your Sour Diesel is from?
I got the one mentioned in this thread as a clone from a dispensary back in January, but their stock is constantly changing. Do you know about Leafly.com?

It still blows my mind that the whole Silver Falls park was once private property, I'm really glad they made it into a state park. I went there back in 2005 (?) -- the year we had all that flooding -- and the falls were almost scary intense, but really beautiful.

Hope the season is dry for us! I'm soooo sick of all levels the rain.
Yeah, the weather really messed me up. I put my plants out during the mini-heat wave a couple of weeks ago and now some are pale green and a couple of the younger clones are stressed and are growing entirely three-leaf patterns, I think from the cold? They are totally over-watered by the frequent rain we're having, so I'm really looking forward to having everything dry out... don't see it happening according to the 10 day forecast... maybe in June? I wish I could bring them back inside but that's not an option. Live and learn! Long time Oregonians say put them out June 1st for a reason... I just never listen. Maybe next year... lol

I just read this on Weather Underground (www.wunderground.com), for what its worth:

Above-average temperatures are expected for the northern half of the nation this summer, according to an updated summer outlook.

The core of the heat in early summer will be centered from the Northwest through the Midwest, but will expand into the East later.

In June, areas from the Pacific Northwest through the northern Plains are forecast to see temperatures the farthest above average.

Yea, I've heard that To. Do u have the app I take it?

Refresh my stoner memory, where were u in the pnw?
No app, just a browser on a laptop.... old school I guess? :shrug:

I'm east of PDX, in the far NE corner of Multnomah County, "The Gateway to the Gorge" (land of "wind events"). I lived in the Eugene area for about 8 years, love that end of the valley.

Maybe the cold wet spring introduction will help in resistant and tolerance of a cold wet fall, (if that's the case this year).

Mine were outside for quite some time, but now they are in to flower. But they didn't seem too overly bothered.

I'd imagine once that heat comes they are going to BLOW upppppp!

Just checking, are you saying that you had your plants outside to veg, but you brought them inside to flower?
Ya man... Kind of odd way to go about things...
Stated inside, took outside til weather turned cooler and wet. They were going to be way to big. The goal was clones and sexing. I am going to flower those mamas, and the clones will be ready for my July planting date.

What's your thoughts HR?

ouch that's a rough wind spot for sure. I been looking at land, and seen a lot of property up there, but the weather / climate scares me off lol.

I'd be cautious, probably quarantine them before putting them back in the grow room. I would be concerned about bringing bugs and mold spores back into my grow space. Between the plant and the soil, there is lots of opportunities for hitch hikers. If I had to do it, I'd spray them (and the pot, and the surface of the soil) minimally with something like Organicide (an organic fungicide/pesticide), or if I was really worried, Azamax.

I have an idea that this fall if the weather turns to crap early, I might finish some of my plants in my garage, probably under the least expensive HPS I can find. If I do that, then moving forward I would have an auxiliary in between space, so for instance this spring I could have moved them in there for a week or two to ride out this cold wet spell. I'm not sure if it would work in reality, its just an idea.

Yeah, we were looking for houses at the bottom of the food chain, and after looking at a bunch of over-priced supposed "fixer uppers" that were structurally in horrible shape, when we saw a well cared for older house in decent shape with good bones on a double lot... Well, when people tried to warn us about the wind we basically did that thing where you put your hands over your ears and shout "LA LA LA LA!!!! I'm not listening!!!!"

It's kind of got a frontier element to it... yeah, that's what we tell ourselves... lol Some parts of the area aren't that bad, we happen to be literally facing the gorge. The house was built around 1904, so people have survived here for a long time. Which perhaps just puts us at the end of a long chain of idiots! LOL (I'm playing, its not that bad.) In the end, you were smart to keep looking. ;)
