Got hit by windy rain storm in no. Cal. Didn't

They got pounded pretty rough. Like flat...yikes! Picking up the "pieces". I can't believe none of the branches branches broke. So far so good. A few of these ladies were 9 ft tall... Putting support ties. The wind was so crazy it broke the support ties we had up there. They are starting to perk back up tho. Expecting sun for the next few weeks. I know they not ready yet. So i guess I'm just looking for some reassurance that they will come back. I'll add pics.

Evolution designed them to withstand winds

. This one is still stacking buds after a complete break up.

I went through the same here in Maine two nights ago. I lost four limbs off three different plants, but it's so close I just retried them up and hung the broken limbs. Like you they were all staked and tied good, it's just they were 9-11' plants with large heavy buds.

Winds not too bad where I am in Nor Cal, and I was able to move them under cover during the rain. Looks like the weather system moved out and no more rain for nor, so I moved them back out into the open yesterday. Was just inspecting them as the sun was coming up and there's dew on them. Hopefully bud rot isn't in their future, that's always my fear as we enter the last month or 2 of the harvest window.

Thank you for your reply. I wish i could have covered them up or blocked the wind somehow. But they looking better
Everyday. Weather permitting how long should i keep them In the ground. I'm afraid of mold. Hopefully it stays
Sunny... Thank you guys for your help.

Glad they seem better. I'm afraid of mold too, but thankfully no signs so far and warm and sunny weather through next week expected. If your conditions aren't calling for more rain in the near future I'd just keep inspecting and wait til they are done. Any signs of mold, cut that shit out and you may have to harvest early

Tomorrow into Saturday looks terrible for wind. Been a tough fall between that and rain.
