I left one, but it dried up and fell off.

IF I go back OD next year, I'm putting some kind of cover over them. I think it was all the rain, not so much the humidity, that caused my bud rot. And I KNOW it was the rain that split my Malawi.

Thinking about PVC and clear plastic sheeting. Maybe removeable, Idk. With a cover, I can also throw a fan out there for better air circulation.
