THose high dew points really fuel the leaf septoria around here! Had one plant that did not get it at all, will be running that one next year and making seeds.

Same weather here. I’m keeping a close eye on the storm. If it hits us, the plants are going in the garage. I built a makeshift cover for the wet weather we are supposed to get over the next week or so but I don’t think it’s a hurricane approved structure…everything is looking good and I’m gonna do my best to keep it that way for the next month.D58CA5B5-69F8-443D-A565-49EE266E8FB5.jpeg03AE127C-1F65-44DD-B3CC-034984B1886E.jpeg40276A08-7521-4F7E-BF11-95299FA0DB61.jpeg

Climate change? WTF? I've been on this property 17 years and have never seen humidity related plant problems before. It's typically very dry here. This year I even have septoria on my avocado trees. Luckily, it's only on one of my indica girls so far, and she's the furthest along. I just need to get to October 7th.

I'm going to spray the organic soil bacterium bacillus amyloliquefaciens strain D747. I'm hoping that will slow it down for 4 weeks. I've read a few studies about it tested on large cannabis farms and it's supposed to work well and is approved by CA, OR, and CO regulatory bodies to spray up to a week before harvest.

Looking awesome! You might want to stake it down in case you get some wind.

Please let us know how well it works! I'm afraid leaf septoria is here to stay, and we need more tools to fight it.

Been brutally hot and humid here by Penobscot Bay this past week. Lots of bud-ripening sun but with relative humidity up above 70% day after day I'm starting to see a spot of bud rot here and there. A week of showers is going to be challenging if there aren't breaks of sun to dry things out.

Looks like the Northern Lights has another week or two max. Got them on a covered porch but if it stays humid and we get fog at night coukd be rough. Hoping for the best...

Same with heat indexes in the 110+ here in coastal Virginia. Humidity in the 90% bracket, supposed to get some relief later in the week , sure hope so. We have had close to 6” of rain in the last week or so. Alternating bt and lost coast and holding my own so far but keeping my fingers crossed. Heres my hurricane rig that tested very well in the northeaster we had a couple weeks ago. These two are both golden tiger.

Hopefully these crop cages help keep the moths out since they are public enemy number 1 where I live View attachment 5325631View attachment 5325632

Having them real bad this year here as well. Even some hummingbird hawk-moth action. Got some trichogramma egg cards coming in to help alleviate the budworm problem. Other than that I’m just going to keep spraying spinosad in between trichogramma applications.
