Unfortunate. If you can dry it out promptly, you should be able to salvage most, if not all of the leaf.

If it dries well, it may get put in the perique bucket.

But it won't know why it's being punished.If it dries well, it may get put in the perique bucket.
What should my RH be in Yellowing Stage?Almost. Lol. Having the flue cure spread between multiple varieties has them ripening on a staggered schedule which helps a lot. Next year I will only do three FC varieties, one of the selection criteria is maturation time, early, medium, late, to spread out the flue curing timetable.
The few days hanging in the green house helps too... The pre-yellowing cuts at least a day off of the flue cure cycle and also the leaf dumps quite a bit of the initial water weight and wilts some, allowing a couple extra strings to fit in each run.
Third season, and still learning, mostly streamlining the process. This has been the most relaxed grow so far, considering the work involved.
Finally started shredding. First tote of flue cure, I couldn't be happier. In the fever of harvest, I didn't appreciate how well this year's curing came out. Nice stuff.
