Nice Garden.

What do you do there when you get the fall rains?

Sun · Post by **Sun** » Mon Jul 26, 2010 8:24 pm

Hope for no fall rains......if it rains it rains, as long as theres no period of time were it goes 2-3 days with no sun theres little worry of bud rot....the cages are my first line of defense from the plant hitting the dirt when they get heavy from rain, I'll spend hours tying branches up.

Sun, I think I know a bit about where you are, but you may be protected. I have never spent a winter in that part of the country.

My friends in Mt Shasta/Dunsmuir had a lot of rain in November last year and had to build a plastic cover to protect them.

Outdoor is SO frustrating. If you live in an arid climate you have to water all the time and the only thing that is green to the flybys is the weed that is watered and the stuff in places that is not arid you have fall rains. The really big crops cannot be covered and have to be harvested way too early. It is so frustrating. I love the sun.

Much less likely to see extended periods of Fall rain there than Shasta.

Still doin' the SSH?

Looks great.

My poor garden is nothing but some cuttings in a bubble cloner.

Your plants are beautiful Sun, I cannot wait till the day I can grow monster trees outdoors!!!!

To me a monster tree would be 10+ pounds, these are just baby trees.....I should have had some monsters over at plot#2 but my buddy is very lazy and thinks if a plant is looking green he's doing his job, I've took over all work at the second plot and am starting to bush things out over there, pushing them to the max in these last few weeks of veg...I'll bring the camera over there in a day or two.
