Incoming typhoon yet again.
Did a monster effort just after dawn today.
There was a bit of rain, enough to get wet, but not soaked.
I just cut those guiding ropes I had set up, no time to properly untie and unthread.
Then I had to hold up those girls, their main tops are flopping down near ground level already, haha!
While I dragged the boxes around the back.
The heaviest pot with the Grail x ThaiFrican and SSSTN x ThaiFrican plants maybe weighed as much as me.
They'll all very saturated from the recent rain.
There's like 1' high ledge you have to pull the box over, it's there to stop balcony flooding come inside the house.
And I was totally thinking that those boxes were just going to break apart when they came down the other side.
Somehow they all managed to hold together.
I huddled them in the corner again, but a bit different.
The SSSTN girls are leaning on the staircase railing.
The Grail girl still can hold herself up okay.
The Grail x ThaiFrican had to be re-staked with those iron bars.
One of the small plants is laying down, but the others are enjoying the fun and are fine.
It's all a big mess, but at least I got them under shelter.
Forecast is for a nasty one, really bad winds.
If I left them out, they'd just have all (or most) of their colas snapped right off.
Meanwhile, the buds are still filling out.
They look big, like 2" diameter buds, nice and long, but they're really fluffy and light.
The drying lower colas of the Grail x ThaiFrican is coming along okay.
Very light fluffy buds, but everything will have to wait until testing, of course.
The rest of her can go longer, so I'll try as long as I can while she's still holding together.
SSSTN need weeks yet, and so does the Grail girl.
Big mission today, but I got it done.
Think I pulled a muscle or something in the process.
Sit at home and prep for the wind and rain.
Fridge and freezer are stocked.
We got this!
Thank you Blessed Sri Sri Gangamata!
