Rain Help~!!

[Atrayou]

We are going to get 4 straight days of rain and wind. I live in New England and my outdoor plants are in the ground. They have been flowering for 6-7 weeks and are finally just starting to look nice. I put up stakes and covered them with large industrial garbage bags ( well what I could get under the bag without damage )....My question is I don't have resin yet but my buds are starting to finally form from Pop corn to colas....should I keep them covered for 4 whole days or not??? I need until the end of OCT or into NOV until this stuff is ready. Will rain hurt them at this stage???
I gotta see this through to stock my barn I have to feed my horses

Yuck, I heard that forecast too- 4 days rain! Time to build an Ark!

Be very careful with trash bags. If you are going to cover your plants, do it as a flat canopy, not wrapped in a bag, because then they will DEFINITELY rot. If you want to keep the rain off, I'd go get a Camo tarp from stupid walmart and tie it to 4 trees above your plants, but not obstructing air flow. MUST BE CAMO; the choppers are a-flyin'.

All cloudy/some amber is a totally fine harvest point. That's when I do my indoor ones, and it's a nice balanced high.
