my last week for my buds to fatten up, and the weather is starting to make a turn for the worst. for teh past 2 days and for the next 4 days we have a low pressure system with lots of rain and cooling temperatures. so this was my final week and all i get is rain rain rain on my buds. its an indoor strain to so i am a bit nervous of bud rot. the trichs are ready but the yield is dissapointing... so i dunno if i should just pick them now? or wait til the end of the week. :(

I'd just pick em now. They prolly won't grow that much more in the shitty weather and like you said, you're risking bud rot/mold.

They wont rot unloess there sitting in standing water, as long as you got good drainage your good to go, I swear it rains for 10 days in a row here sometimes, and I just let them go, and when i go back outside and the sun is out they are so muchh better, the nutes flush thru, you get a good flush, and you start off where you left off before the rain. Drainage is the key to the heavy rain, my experience.

thats true geh, but there was sorta alot of mildew forming on the leaves, plus the area that i was in was not getting much sun at all, maybe 2 hours direct. last years spot turned into condominiums over the last year, so I just said screw it and put them in my back yard. lol I got like a half oz. off 1 plant. but atleast it was a good strain. looks, and smells like some good stuff. just a small amount though, yeah i did cut it down today.
I gave my cousin the plant i left some branches on it for him he is gonna regrow under flouros, and he has an hps for flowering.
