DM: i'm gonna take a look and see what it looks like first and then decide on what to do with the window. That sounds like a good idea.. but i'm hoping i wont have to do anything except paint. The window is on the 2nd floor and as far away from the main entrance as possible.
for anyone that cares.. here's what last harvests buds are looking like all cured up.
