rain and wind up to 35 mph this afternoon and evening. i'm worried about the additional weight of the rain on my branches. they can hold their weight now but once they get overloaded with rain and then the wind blows things start cracking. guess i better make sure all is secure.
forecast calls for broken branches

I hear what your sayin fdd. 30% chance of rain here with winds 20-30mph. Im watching very closely. I have a few buds that are sideways because the weight twisted the branch, but I fear the same thing happening. Ive got twine going every which way off the main stem keepin things up, but.....shit happens.

sorry to hear about your weather troubles. The casualties were close to harvest time right?
weather conditions inside my hydro hut are a steady 76f with a gentle breeze from the north west
seriously though, hope the rest of the crop pulls through without damage. You never know when I'll be in sunny cali!

Check it out fdd, I can relate.
That sucks. At least its just a couple branches....for now.we have casualties. i've saved a couple that broke. tied them back up with garden tape. a few others weren't so lucky...
Rain came here and branches were leaning way to far over. ready to snap at any moment. I had to act fast. There was no way they could survive a-couple hours of this rain and wind let alone a few days of it. So I put an EZ UP over a few and on the shorter two I propped up my daughters trampoline up onto a couple of chairs. It just almost clears the tallest shoot. One bud is bent over slightly. I was able to tie (More String LOL) the leaning, overweighted branches up to the ceiling of the EZ-UP. Should last a couple days till the sun comes back. Mother Natures a bitch sometimes.
