Good or bad outdoor weather this season?

here in the north been rainy,rainy pretty cold and windy i guess pretty normal for the time of year the salmon are running and the deer moving around can really feel fall setting in. looking out my window there is trees in full colors and the trees around them starting to go. I love this time of year just could live without the cold rainy days just not a fan of that part. ever since i got hurt I dont get out and about as much so I get cold but with cold you can put on layers so I guess better then 100 degree weather. lol I guess give ya something to complain about. I do know took down mau freasa and a blue godxpurt t about a week early and oh my is that some awesome medicine for sure. it was taken because of the rainy weather didnt want to take the chance of mold. Wow that something never had problems with knock on wood is Caterpillars thank god, just damn slugs in spring and early summer but after learning my lesson once with those slime ball i use sluggo and solved that problem.

Dont use sluggo, the metadalhyde is so toxic AND less effective lobg term than iron phosphate based ecosens and the new formulation by amdro that is safe as well. I battle snails worse than anyone on these boards at one spot in particular and have spent close to $500 just this season. Also, make sure you dont get any pellets in the buds AT ALL, they cause mold. Also, you should still be treating, slugs WILL wipe oir a half pounser at the end of the year, had it happen at a spot not even notorious for them.

Didn't know was that bad I only use it for one application when i first put the little girls out. Been lucky there to never have had problems after like end of may to july where im at then they seem to go away or i always thought they didn't care about the plant after they grow up a bit. but I guess i have found a snail or two on flowering plants. Thanks for the advice I do know there is organic remedy's out there just haven't researched them enough.

Awesome, I'm watching it rain right now wishing I was on river hoping I getb a chance this year to do some salmon fishing. I did get out after the Big Browns in the rivers this summer and caught some nice brookies but was awesome took my boys with me the one time and my 4 yr old caught a 18 in brown thats a monster for a 4 yr old lol. I should take the boys right now down to local creek and look for brookie running thats fun watching the brookie spawning in the little creeks. but man your girls look awesome too the purple haired one looks real similar to one we grow up here and really love. good luck with everything

*would be good no more rain

For sure just talk to my partner and a beautiful blue god he's got found a little bit of mold starting so she came down which is fine but would have been nice to leave her a couple more days. would be nice to do like fruit growers and vineyards do and build fires to keep them warm and dry and put big fans out too lol. That wouldn't look out of place you think? lol

Its been good so far,but I didnt put them outside until July 20+. But since then there has been 3 30 degree nights,and it did not affect them. I am growing Serious AK/47 and Chimera Schnazzleberry #2. Im going too harvest a dwarf AK this weekend. Im in the midwest east of the Mississippi, so we have had a lot of heat this summer. The corn and soybean crop has realy been sad, unless it was irragated

Get ready Guys. Good chance of rain on Monday, Just Gotta follow the Jet Stream. We haven't seen a drop of rain in my little Eco-system N of Mendo. Some misting, but no rain. Heard that Lake County had an intense 5 minute DOWNPOUR the other day....

I will still have some Panama Red x C99's out there covered. Maybe let the HUGE SSH go on if it does not exhibit mold. Long-*ss Thicky Colas.. Other than those 3-5 all should be in.

Good Luck in Your Bountiful Harvests..!!!!

Slow start up here 60~ North, we had -1°c just the other week (nighttime).

Currently around ~5°c (nighttime), hope it picks up fast.
Spring is delayed nearly a whole month.

Shorter season on the already short season is never fun. :frown:

The spring here has been cold and wet, but looks like the weather will be improving soon! Looking forward to an amazing growing season this year. Last year was excellent hoping for a repeat or even better this year.
