outdoor buds + rain! help!

I have some ladies finishing up outside with nice fat colas and it rained for 2 days,i shook the water out of buds ythe first night,but the last rain was muchheavier and this mornin buds were soaked...Am i asking for boyitris by leaving them out there or should i chop em down to prevent mold,i have seen a small portion of mold in on cola (which i cut out} Thanks and praise

I'm in the same boat as you my friend...luckily, these past two days have brought me summer weather to dry out the buds...I too, have removed some rot here and there...just keep a weary eye out on em'

How far into flower are you might I ask?

u good they wont mold but if u do make sure u get atleast 3 fans in the room they will mold then i had to deal with that last yr so just wait til they done

We're in the outdoor growers' forum right? I had to check and make sure...I got a little confused...

you got fucked like me lol.... This rain killed me. I came out this morning and half my plants had half of their lower branches resting on the ground... I was like !!!!!!!!!!. Had to spend all morning tieing them up. I would leave them in the ground til they dry out before you chop them down. You'd probably have more of a risk of mold hanging them when they are soaking wet. THe plant will naturally transpire a lot of the water off. and the heat of this time of year will dry up the rest in a couple days.

let me offer some friendly advice. I've been growing in the paradise for over 35 yrs. Of all those years,every single grow op was done outside! Let me tell you, "Bud Rot" is not your friend. Wit that in mind, you should kill it at every chance you get! You cannot control it no matter how much you try. "Cut it out", absolutely not! the shit spreads like wild fire. If you try to cut it out, then you will have Bud Rot spores everywhere!!!! Next day upon waking up, you'll have rot everywhere starting up! When I see it I throw the entire plant away, and at the very least,...the entire branch!

There is a product called 'Garden Dust' that works pretty good as far as bud rot goes.

Good luck,

Puna Bud

He planted these seeds in june i bellieve,and all four are over 8ft tall and massive!
This is his first time and i am very impressed,he just waters the 3 times a day which seems to be working fine.
I have had to cut some tops to eradicate tinty bits of mold,and things look nice just want to let everything finish up right! But this will be my first sucessfull od patch {rippers/mold grrrrr}
Cheers
