That is a "problem" I like having. It isnt happening this season however.
I seen some very effective netting systems in humbolt. Thought out before putting plants in the earth not to damage root systems later on. Have large modular cube shaped frames on place ready in place to fully enclose them by drape mesh netting over them. That will support as many branches as the plants can throw out.
2x2 construction grade studding will suffice for framing but pvc piping is much better. And it will far outlast wood. And it won't twist and go screwy from weather. Glued and screwed pvc pipe with a modular concept has far more advantages. so it can be taken apart and adjust as needed. By simply adding / removing different lengths.
I suppose it wouldn't be difficult to rig something up that late in it. Instead of staking the frames to secure it sand bagging it will be root friendly.
I learned with experience its much less headache having something all ready before the plants even meet the earth.
Looking good there bro, props.
My couple could be doing better. I failed to include silica this grow and sure enough powder mildew is starting to take advantage. I notice very sporatic touches of the pm here and there.
I'm 100% convinced along with other mechanisms (first and foremost maintaining the best possible plant health) the silica gives marijuana that extra edge defending against powder mildew.
I introduced it to my gardening a few years ago. Through 6 full grows I didn't seen a single trace of the mildew anywhere. I knew better so I have no one to blame but myself.
The humidity has been relentless every other week this year. Combined with the typical usual rain you can say I almost seen it coming. There is only a tiny amount of obvious traces. I cut thise out.
Hopefully it won't get too ugly and the humidity clears once and for all. Growing conditions here are otherwise usuall pretty optimum in my location. Its one of those things when nature decided to throw a curve ball my way. I won't try to fight he stuff once it gets a foot hold. Its a losing battle imho. Best you can do is cut out what appears and save yourself a bunch of stress and screwing around for nothing. I tried everything to get rid of PM in the past. Even went so far as to completely tent the plants inside plastic so I could bomb them with Sulphur burner. 300 bucks later the PM was still progressing.
Along with maintaining the best optimum plant health possible so it can defend itself from such invaders. Silica supplement/ additive is the xtra insurance. Its one of those elements thats easily over looked and there isnt a lot of in typical soils. Its essential element that should be included anyway. For optimum health + it makes branches much stronger and able to take strong wind and support fatter nugs. Dammit and dammit. This one hurt a little bit to type LOL
learn as they say.

Should I feed these baby's extra since they are massive or stick to my monthly schedule with 2 cups each Gaia green 4-4-4 and 2-8-4 and worm castings

I stop feeding about now. Mine will get one more bloom shot, then just finish out. They are similar in size.

Been a rough season in ohio this year. Bugs and slugs have been making it rough, but so far we're looking ok. Any thoughts on what I can do for improvment?? Lmk

I twist the top off then peel back leaves to expose rings/root nubs then put them in a jar of water that I change out every few days. Once I see roots develop, I put in pots with 70-30 Coco-Perlite

Copper bands around pots or plain old Slugg-O works. You can also use Slug saloons or beer traps. As for bugs, beneficial insects help as with planting crops around that attract predator insects, like Fennel bulb attracts predator wasps that prey on caterpillars. Beneficial nematodes also help as well

Mendo Purps x Triangle Kush from seed. CSI Humboldt. She’s an early one, which will be nice. Hopefully it’ll help me avoid da rot.

So i did a thing today. Leaving Thursday for a week so i picked up a timer and 50’ garden hose, threaded thru the girls, drilled 1/4” holes and set the timer for daily 5 minute trickles at 5:30 and 2:00. Also learned that grow bags will root in soil, its a good thing.
