Big yikes boys. A Nor'easter came through and wrecked havoc on the garden. The Fire Purps has been completely demolished, however the Blue Dream has fared much better. I put a trellis net over her and zip tied it to the cage. She got beat up a bit, but she still lives. That being said she is getting really bad budrot. Not wanting to waste any of it, I went out during the storm to harvest her biggest tops. Shit sucked. Took off a bunch of her top colas and almost cried. It kills me to take any off before her buds are fully mature, but what other option do I have? I chopped the colas off in the field and then performed a quick trim right there in the rain. Stuck the partially trimmed wet colas into a tote and brought them in to be trimmed further and bud washed. The buds are chunky, but definitely not as mature as the Fire Purps buds. Took a look at the trichs under a microscope and I would say it was about 70% milky with the rest being clear. Alot of amber on the sugar leaves. First time budwashing and it was strange as hell. Never before have I taken a fat cola and just dunked it right into water before. Did the three 5-gallon bucket method with the first bucket filled with 1/2 cup of baking soda and 1/2 cup of lemon juice. Soaked those bitches and then threw them up on the line for drying. The weather is supposed to be rainy for another two days. The plan is to go out everyday and chop branches that have rot, then hopefully harvest in another week or two. I have a feeling most of the plant will be unsalvageable. Wish me luck!

Grow Questions

Gold1started grow question 2 years ago
It seems my Blue Dream has flowered prematurely after transplant outside. Cutting to the chase, what should I expect from this plant for the rest of the season? Will it reveg naturally and how long will it take to reveg? Should I be cutting off budsites? What do you think.

As Ez says. Your plant was triggered by lack of light. As transplant only really shocks autos into an early flip. (Not that you should, I'm just pointing out. Stress can cause early flip, but not with a fem) overcast or you're not getting enough light for 14hrs a day min is needed to keep a fem in veg. Say a few hrs she's blocked out by the sun for say 20m, (that won't be an Issue) as Photochrome takes 2hrs in a natural outdoor environment, as it does in a tent. That's the time it takes your plant to be fully out of umol to support a photosynthesis reaction.. so you're in the wrong time. Meaning you season was started to early?. Your outdoor lighting time as I said must be a constant 14+ hrs of good light. It might be a case of it revegging itself and finishing it as the natural pace. I see you've got it in a set bed. So, my guess. Is you are early. As its only coming into the long days where I live. Late April, for some is fine. Can be started, but you need to make sure by or coming into wk 3 that you are getting enough light. Or they'll flip.

Looks very healthy but I can see what you’re saying about it being a pain. I’ve got some Blue Dream Fast seeds from Seedsman that I will try outdoor next year as an 8 or 16 manifold Manifolding is easy enough, all the work is up front, it makes nice uniform buds, and harvest is so much easier. Good luck.

@Gold1, oh, if it was revegged, would this be called monstercropping? That would explain it and yeah you wouldn’t be trying to manifold in that scenario. Anyway, thanks and good luck.

@Northern_Ent, Yeah, she is a nightmare to deal with compared to the Fire Purps I'm growing next to her. Since the reveg, her stems grow short and its a pain to get in and work with her. I can just tell that she is going to have issues when she starts stacking buds. I've been trying to take branches off but it feels like no matter how much I take off there is still more :D. Hopefully it works out 👍. Thanks for the good luck and good luck yourself my friend!

Nice big plant but bud rot sucks. You might want to try manifolding your outdoor photoperiods next time. You’ll end up with good airflow to avoid bud rot and nice uniform buds which really makes processing way easier at the end. Good comments and I agree that if you just let the plants do their thing it likely won’t work very well.
