The buds are starting to bulk up and so is the smell! It's been less rain this week but the hot summer days are here and humidity is getting uncomfortable and thick. It's around this time of the year I get nervous about powdery mildew and bud rot. I've found some buds affected by rot but just cutting and removing the affected parts. But - no powdery mildew at all, which is awesome because I would normally start seeing that. Something I've done seems to have worked, but I'll comment on this at harvest... Had another snake visit this week, a brown house snake. Harmless - but it did get a few bites into my thumb before chilling out and seeming to enjoy basking in the sun on my warm hand (you never really know what he was thinking though, he is a snake after all). My daughter wanted to name him "Handsome", but I wanted "Thnake" - so we settled on "Handsome Thnake", before releasing him. Cheers buddy!🐍 (apologies for sharing a lot of the writeup each week with other diaries of mine, but they have very similar info and it makes these updates a bit easier!)
