New Grower To chop or not to chop??

[Balarama]

I need some opinions.

Just found out some rains are coming and I have 6 autos just about to be done. They are DutchPassion's ThinkDifferent and AutoXtreme(3+3) and today is day 78, grown outdoors, transplanted@day19.
Last time I checked them was 10 days ago, TDs looked tight but still mixed colour of pistils, the AXs is just a bit earlier.

Now the issue is, do I go chop them tomorrow or leave them for another week in some wind, with high possibility of showers? Do I risk getting mold or rot?
Next week is gonna be sunny after some showery days(maybe not so wet).

I'm asking because it's my first auto-experience and I have no idea of how they stand the bad weathers.


Here's how they looked 17 days ago:




Thanks for your help:hug:

I can't judge how ripe they are based on 17 day old pictures, but I would guess you could let them hang outside just fine. I would guess you'd chop a TD down around day 100, or even later, so you're probably going to ahve plenty of time to assess the situation as it develops.

I agree, can't make a valid assessment off of 17 day old pics.

I know, but it's all I got for now.

Well, I've decided to let them ripe for another week or more(if necessary) and not worry about the weather so much.
Maybe the colder days will make them feel the end is coming.

Thnx for your comments, they were very helpful with a calming effect


If you're interested, I will post a thread about the DP babies in the DP subforum sometime next week, with some pics from the whole growth.
And of course the smoke reports(bud+extract) sometime later.:group:

You should be fine. The real enemy is extended periods of high humidity, more so than just some rain.

Tell me about it, I've got an auto out back with a top bud the size of a wine bottle and it's been humid for days. I have no finger nails left!

 

[Balarama]

On the bright side, you won't be needing to clip your nails for some time

What strain do you have, MrPiggy? The cola size description makes me curious.
My autos are(were) not so big, I was hoping for more, to be sincere.

Mi5 x Jem f2, some pollen chucking I did a lil while back.
