West Coast Diesel: First Grow Journal - Would Love Some Insight

Morning fellow 420ers had a big storm last night so thankful the plants are doing alright. Been watering roughly 40 litres per day 15 litres in the morning and another 25 litres in the evening.

Went out to take a look at the plants this morning and found what looks to be some kind of bug eggs on one of my fan leaves of one of the west coasts.

Just wondering if anyone knows what this was and if so any way to treat it?

That's loads 😮 looks like caterpillar/moth/butterfly/beetle or along those lines but definitely eggs
 
I'd take off the leaf and crush it if you don't see any actual bugs. Save the spraying for when you definitely need it!
 
I find a fan with eggs like that now and then and remove it like Shed mentioned. With prejudice! I haven't had a repeat in the same season that I know of. Good eyes! Keep at it!
 
Thanks stone got lucky was watering this morning and it was on one of the outer fan leaves and walked past and saw this random white spot and went and checked it out

Good catch NBG I check my plants every day it's not wet. :thumb: 🍋
 
Good afternoon fellow 420ers got a beautiful day today after a chilly and wet day day yesterday. Finally got the plants back and the soil moist after giving some good soaks this past week.

Going to put some trellis nets on the big west coast and peanutbutter haze later today. Dont think the other 2 west coasts need them and probably to late to cage them but at least i have the cages for next season.

Going to start feeding them green rush bloom since all the west coasts have started flowering still waiting on the peanutbutter to start, cant tell if its in pre flower yet.

Heres some photos from this morning after their watering

Serious bushes! Have you seen @StoneOtter's method for supporting his trees? It's here.
 
hey shed hows was your weekend, i have not seen stones method il go check it out though.

Need to re support tonight one of my plants it was to tight and started slicing the stock a bit caught it early enough. Put some aloe on the wound heard from someone its good for exposed broken branches and stocks

Morning fellow 420ers starting week 2 of flower for the west coasts, hope everyone had a good weekend. The week looks pretty good for weather with nothing to hot and some rain in the forecast .

All the plants have bounced back and are perked up which is nice to see since flowering have started for all my west coasts, still waiting on the peanutbutter haze to start flowering but looks like its in pre flower which is good to see.

Gave the plants a good feeding yesterday with 24L each of greenrush bloom and checked the bottom of the pots this morning and they are still wet which is great to hear save me a watering session this morning.

Havent seen any more bugs or eggs on any of the west coasts i did find some more eggs on one of the peanutbutter’s fan leaves but was removed. Going to do another spray tonight to be safe.
 
Beauties! And lose the string completely...it's time for rope. :thumb:
 
Morning fellow 420ers plants are doing good for the most part. Was re staking the big west coast last night with my dad and ended up partly snapping a main branch which really sucks ended up doing wrapping it in plastic wrap and taping it up going to monitor it for the next few days and see if i need to cut the branch or if it heals it self.

Support it from below to take the weight off as the flowers grow and the plant won't notice a thing. A 1x4 with a curve cut into the end (for the branch) and the other end stuck in the dirt will work well to hold up branches.

Further up the branch is easier than down low.

A t-shirt rag tied around the plant and a rope around it is what I've been using on the big girls. I see what you're doing with the hose around the string though Newb. Good idea.
