Keeping plants in the ground....

Oh **** leave them on for a few days tied tightly
See how fast they rot

Had them like that 4 days last year

Did the moisture build up in bag and fog over inside?
I'd be worried of rot coming overnight where I am

 

[RosterMan]

My plants are on a awning covered deck and just the moisture in the air with rainfall causes rot

Yup i seen that.

 

[RosterMan]

Yup i seen that.

Like I said if it were me and the rain is not straight rain I would remove the covers and blow them dry every so often with blower

 

[RosterMan]

Dang dog just peed on one of my fab pots
Need to flush it off now
BBL

 

[Hippie420]

Just a little added nitrogen.

The rain today is a fine rain off and on all day, wont stop until early morning if AccuWeather is right. Even still with no rain 54 deg with 85% humidity, just standing around stuffs gonna get wet.

So it stopped raining and the bags are off the plants, they look OK. I'm sure the moisture level was high but didn't see any on the plants, how long will it take for bud rot to show?

 

[WeedHopper]

Doesn't take long my friend. Leaf blower works wonders.

Good wind today + 4,000 CMF fan on them.

 

[WeedHopper]

Hopefully they will be fine.
Last yr I dealt with 2 weeks of steady rain and my girl was in the ground. I used umbrella's and a leaf blower. Found one small bud down low that had just got started with bud rot. Removed it and never seen anymore on my plant thank God.
That's why this yr I used fabric pots where I could take them in if needed. So far haven't seen any rain. Had several days of of a 107f weather and they loved it.

I also give each branch a good shake and then blower, and then run a fan on them if possible

 

[WeedHopper]

Yep. I shake the **** out of each limb before and after I use the leaf blower.

I brought 1/2 of mine into the Den last night it has 12 ft ceilings LOL

Last yr was the only yr I had to watch for Bud Rot because it rained for weeks. Normally it rains and the sun comes out and it's hotter than a mother fker and dries **** out quick.

This time of year is a crap shoot in New England, next 10 days according to AccuWeather is Mid 60' in the day to mid to lower 40's at night, it's wet in the morning.
