How does creek water do for watering? Every other time I would bring ph'd water with me but there is a creek I have to cross to get to my plants that I could easily use for water but I'm not sure how it will effect my plants. Could I just use that to avoid bringing water with me every time? I could just leave the jugs close by.

Creek water works fine I do it all the time. I have gravity fed water to plants in the past using creeks. Works fantastic.
I thought about trying to come up with something but the creek is down hill from them so I will probably not gravity feed but this will make it easier until I buy watering spikes

Take some home and dump it on the houseplants. And see what happens.

Check out Monterey, Sluggo. With slugs I think you have to set up a barrier around the base of your pots. So they can’t crawl in. But you have to be careful with what you put out so you’re not poisoning other wildlife. The caterpillars might be hatching from eggs on your plants or maybe they are crawling in also. You’ll have to figure that one out. Good to see that you are still at it.

I like the Monterey Garden Insect spray. How are things coming along in general?
Things are coming along ok I think. Still not much growth and still hoping they'll reveg. I just reapplied more worm castings and done some trimming. I picked off a few slugs and caterpillars but today is the first day in about a week since I've been out. Its been raining alot lately. I'm coming back tomorrow with something for the pests once I figure something out. Sorry for not keeping anyone updated. There just hasn't been much of anything going on to report. The Blueberry is really sticky and slightly has the Blueberry smell. I tried pulling some bud off because someone recommended i do that but it seemed like I wasn't doing it right. I plan on to just leave it be and take care of the pests and hope it goes back on its own. I'm unsure of what the white on the leaves are but I figure its bird poop or something.

Hey there buddy they’re coming along just fine they’re reveging just fine. Keep an eye out for pm powdery mildew it is white and spreads fairly quickly it could just be bird poop too. when you grow outdoors you get various bugs chewing on some leaves here and there it’s going to happen but sometimes the other predator bugs will come to the rescue. Or you have to spray to get rid of them and varying the products you use as needed. My plants are chewed up here and there but they are fine. It’s been raining so much lately trying to spray before dark as usual has been hit and miss. Hang in there flowers are coming!!

Do you guys think it would be a good idea to take some stakes and garden wire out and stake some branches down?

Growth is slow but that's to be expected considering what happened. Your plants look very good. Healthy, and they are growing even if it's hard to see. The third picture you posted you can see evidence of new growth, just look at your tall top branches that are reaching up. All that lower jungly stuff is what happens when you re veg, because of they way it grew when it flowered it looks funky as it starts grow back into veg, but it is happening.

You will probably want to get a cage around your plant before fall anyways otherwise those tall branches will hang down when they get a heavy bud on the end. Ideally if you want to train them out now is the time to be doing it, as when they start to flower again in the fall you won't want to be moving them as much after buds have set. Play around, experiment, find what works best for you
