Cooled off this week, 4th top recovered nicely, 32 nodes all secured down, another top next week, 2 week recovery then I'll let it grow up, and maybe one more top before letting her ride it out. I'll add a scrog net to guide the vertical growth up, works well as I can start it low and just slide it up and she grows up.
Just drip irrigation 90min every 5 days, and a half dose of silica and diablo maxx, weekly LCPT spray and that's it for this week! Even the smaller plant looks incredibly healthy, loving life!
Caterpillar damage is bad, but they will disappear shortly and those damaged leaves won't even exist in a month anyways. This fall I'm going to try to wrap my massive cherry tree in sticky stuff to prevent the canker moths from crawling up laying eggs in the fall, will see if next year's caterpillars are better.
