Black Runtz - outdoor grow, harvest or not?

long time from harvest, don't bother scoping trichomes until the plumping stops. if rot is a concern, then take it early, but at this early stage i'd try to cut it out, first, and at least delay the spread to allow more ripening. Even if you cut out more flower, it'll still improve yield and likely quality compared to immature buds. extreme situations, maybe... but that yield will shrink up to nearly nothing as it dries at this point and with reduced potency. But, even if you have to throw out half the canopy over time (another month) as it shows rot, still might outweigh what you'd get today. Just a guessing game....

you already had bud rot and heavy rain is coming, I’d definitely harvest now. The trichomes look mostly cloudy, so you’ll still get good potency and a nice uplifting effect. Leaving it out in the rain risks spreading mold fast, especially on dense buds. Better to lose a few days of ripening than the whole harvest.

That's no where near ready for harvest. If you think it's going to rain, just move the plants near a fence or into a greenhouse or something. If it's very heavy rain, you can always give them a little shake and/or take a hair dryer to them

Uff das ist eine schwierige Entscheidung. Das Wetter wird nicht besser werden und mit jedem weiteren Tag steigt das Schimmelrisiko. Wenn du die Feuchtigkeit nicht aus deinem Greenhouse bekommst würde ich sie ernten, auch wenn es viel zu früh ist. Nächstes Jahr würde ich Ende Mai ein paar Autos draußen pflanzen, davon hast du dann viel mehr

hey 👋 No, bro, you're two or even three weeks too early... If you can't bring them inside, leave them in a greenhouse and water them very sparingly. If possible, place a few passive dehumidification containers in there, which cost a few dollars each. A small, even battery-powered, fan would also be a good idea.
