Would rain affect her in any way due to the fact that she is coming down this week

Chop before the rain.
That's what I'd do.

Are you serious will water or rain affect my.harvest it wont be windy.or nothing just rainfall. I originally planned on cutting her down on friday. Will the water ruin the buds

Could cause bud rot and fast.
If your close to finish take it down.
Or bring them inside if you can and finish them indoors.
If not, cover them but even then with the humidity your risking rot starting in the buds.

4 posts, clear plastic attached to posts create what some call a dew shield. Basically a make shift roof. Works great in late fall to reduce moisture within buds.

One day won't make any difference to the crop quality so cut now or risk problems. Seems pretty simple to me.

:peace:

I'm basically doing that right now to protect my auto fem seedlings I just put outside on the 29th. Nothing but heavy rain since and I don't want my hole flooded out. Bit of sun today in northern Alberta.

Alberta gets great sun. Southwest ontario has hot plus humid weather. Dew shelter allows us to grow til 1st-2nd week of november. Morning dew is a big issue. Autos are great as they can be harvested before the thieves.

I like to apply tanglefoot around base of stem to prevent bugs.. chilli infused water to spritz the ground close to plants to avoid rodents..

I've seen a neighbourhood worth of outdoors all turn to mold within two hours. Devastating to a group of "book club" members. We quickly called each person to give them a heads up to get them inside and chop any rot!
This was just a foggy cool night that did it.
Better to chop a bit early than wait for rot.
Good luck to you op!
