another good strain for pollen chucking for mold resistance is Hollands hope

That's what I was thinking...got a baby one in the seedling / clone tent now.

You've had decent luck with Lemon Skunk for mold resistance ? I'm thinking of combining that or a Lemon Amnesia with Iranian for the early finish.

Getting tired of watching 7 footers get eaten by mold this time of year. Gotta do something.

Looks like some of you are still doing alright this season. Which is great . I'm happy for you guys.

I took a couple of my greenhouse girls that were doing not so good, sprayed the Fuck out of them with a h202 mix & stuckb em in the garage under a 1000w with a fan. All is looking stable there.

Now my best white widow, that only had a couple spots, was covered this afternoon. Every branch mold. Every fucking branch. I just laughed.

I guess every year can't be good.

So I sprayed the Fuck out of that 1.
Rain tomorrow, so I'll spray some more.

Now, somehow, my blue dream has no mold. Not even a a single spot. I'll look again tomorrow, but what's a good preventative? Cause I'm sure as it bulks up, the mold will come. & is blue dream known to be mold resistant.

Usually I grow obsession,( not this year) which is more resistant. & my widow does ok too. But this year has been the worst. Worst year ever.

Shows what I know...I'm over here thinking "if I only had a greenhouse I'd have no problems at all..."

I guess the bud is always greener on the other side of the fence...or in the other greenhouse..or something.

Deff a bummer of a year. Looking at my outdoor plants and thinking about what could have been is a heartbreaker every time I go to check the condition of the survivors.

My greenhouse is great, most of the year. I have a lot of air circulation. Keeps the rain off & neighbors can't see what I'm doing.

But it holds a lot of humidity. I thought about taking the pots out on the nice days & just moving them in when I know the rain is coming. Don't know exactly how that would work though. 20gal aeropots. No handles...

Gonna have to start planning.

I'd have to alter the greenhouse. I kind of just threw it together from a carport frame that a tree fell on & some scrap wood I had.

Make the doorway diffrent...lowner & wider...idk.

& what then put the pots on carts?
The plants get big some years almost touching the top of the Greenhouse. Gonna have to think hard.

Maybe make a few rolling dollies. So you can just roll them out the open end of the greenhouse. Or, seal it up more permanently so moving them outside is not an issue at all? Idk, I have zero greenhouse experience.

I saw where someone on Instagram was doing a light dep with pots in those 4 wheel garden wagons. He had a kind of train track set up with 2X4's and pulled them all out with his lawn mower. Each wagon was hooked to the one in front of it, like a train.

I had 3 plants going, I chopped 2 before the rains. The third is a Sunshine Daydream. It wasn't as far along as the others, so it shows no sign of bud rot, worms, etc. The days of rain in SNE knocked it over, but still no rot. The pistils have turned brown, however.

It looks like it is finished, but the buds are tiny. Think it will bulk back up, or start throwing white hairs again?

Lol it is like a horror movie I was thinking the same thing

Wake up DirtFarmer, the Fog is back!
This is too much like the film, but it rolls in and snatches all these pot plants instead.
GDP and others are the well loved victims.

I'm going out and hitting the bottom canopy with serenade ( tops and middles done yesterday) and the grow bags and stalks with sulpher / oil spray. Fans on full.

On a more positive note, I have found what I think might be a means to successfully growing sativas in our neck of the woods.

Of the 3 Amnesia Haze I have going, the ones in the 5 gal pots are 3 or 4 weeks ahead of the ones in the ground. They got the same sun, same location.

My uneducated noob assumption is that the stress of being confined to a pot, and/or the more immediate and concentrated uptake of nutes available to the captive plants, is making the potted sativas flower much earlier. Hopefully I can replicate it next year with 5 or 6 in pots of different sizes to see...
A) if that's accurate, and the potted plants do flower MUCH earlier like they did this year...and
B) what is the point if diminishing returns in regard to pot size. (Meaning, does a sativa in a 20gal pot flower early just like the 5gal pots have)

I've noticed with mine that are in buckets seem to be ahead of those in the ground. I think when they get to a point they can't grow or support more they can start earlier.
