To begin with this was my 1st grow. AND it was the wettest summer our region has EVER had. We had just under 21 inches of rain in the last 90 days. During one particularly rainy week in August the flowers really seemed to deflate. They never recovered. I really did not get anything like a real "bud" on either of my two plants. I had one plant in the ground with a mixture of my normal soil and compost. The other was in a 5 gallon smart pot with happy frog potting soil. I did go light on nutrients for the 1st few weeks. Only a compost tea and later the light nutrients. Between the two, the one in the smart pot did better than the one in the ground. Both were in an area that had marginal direct sunlight. I had to do this to be discrete. Things looked OK during veg, but again we had a really, really rainy year. I'm torn on how to score this, but a 4 star review seems right. I say this because I did have one other variety that weathered the same rain, nutrient regiment and marginal sunlight as the OG Kush and that one (Sour Diesel) did much, much, much better. Ironically the SD happened to be the "freebie" seeds that came in my order. They are doing the best of all of my plants. Go figger...

OK, the roundup... I had two OG Kush plants. One was in a 5-gallon smartpot and the other was in my native soil with extra compost. The one in the smartpot definitely was the stronger of the two. If you have read any of my earlier posts, you know this was a very, very wet summer. In fact, it was our rainiest ever. I stopped checking after awhile, but we were well over 20 inches during the time period when the plants were in the ground. Both really took a beating during mid-August and stopped developing. It was almost like someone let the air out of the buds. I harvested the one in the dirt first after 73 days in the soil. Trichomes were definitely already in 20% amber range. It was also showing the worst bud rot. It yielded .4 oz. The second OG Kush (smartpot) was harvested after 85 days in the soil. Trichomes again were about 20% amber. Similar bud rot by this time. It yielded .7 oz. Hindsight being 20:20 I would have given them more nutrients early on. I was very light on them. My grand total for the season (8 seeds) was 5.2 oz dried (combo of amnesia haze, og kush and sour diesel). Two of these seeds were grown else where and were quite small there too. Those accounted for about 3/4 oz of my grand total.

@Fast_Buds, thank you very much for your offer! This is my 1st time growing and I think I dodged a proverbial bullet here. The weather turned cold and rainy right after popping these in the ground, but it looks like they ALL may make it!

Congrats and too bad about the rain. I realized this year that rain can actually knock trichomes off the plant so rain during late stage flowering is bad not just because of the risk of mould. That’s an advantage of growing in bags because you can move them out of the rain (or into the sunlight) when needed. Better luck next year. Cheers.
