Yes sir wish ive got more done but will take what i can get. Hopefully will get some more done this week.
Been tough this season with the amount of watering i have to do with these fabric pots. Next season will need to have irrigation or at least a hose running out to the plants.
Yes you can take photos with a scope - it's often usb and the images are displayed on your laptop screen so you can finely adjust in great detail before you save the image
Here is a pic I took with a $10 8x loupe taped to my old old Samsung S4:

I have a wireless scope now but I'm not sure the pics are higher resolution, just easier to take!

Great macro shots for under $10: smart phone not included
Don't make life complicated with mount-on and high power loupes, or one for looking and one for pics! Here is how I do it with a $10 8x loupe and a 5 year old Samsung S4...

Good afternoon fellow 420ers woke up to a chilly morning was 4 degrees. Turned into a nice and sunny day. Gave a quick leaf blow on the plants to combat all this dew we have been getting. Always wish i can do it for longer because its never fully dried just dont have the time in the morning.
Mid week update it seems like the pure crop might have slowed down the spreading of whatever is attacking my one west coast. Should have been enough time in between spraying the pure crop to allow me test out the H202.
Going to do a test spray this evening on the infected area. Will be checking the trichomes before spraying with loupe and after to determine if i should do a full soak.
Im curious if what eveyones opinion on if whats infecting it may be root based or more of foliage outbreak?
Hope everyone has a great day

My guess is that it's leaf-based or it wouldn't be slowed by spraying and would be covering a lot more of the plant.

Yea that makes sense, cant tell forsure if it has actually slowed down but it seems like it has. When ive experienced other diseases in the past it feels like it would have already spread to at least that whole main branch.
Will take some photos of it this evening for ya so its possible to compare photos before the spray and after

Thanks for the kind words Keith. The first west coast that started flowering in week 6, the other 2 are in week 5, and the peanutbutter is in week 2.
Going to deff have to tarp the peanutbutter since its gonna have to be out here for another 4-5 weeks minimum which is deff scary to think about. Gonna end up tarping the big west coast to hopefully just to be safe.
When you tarp, them it does not smash your buds. I think I will need to do the same thing, but I am worried I will ruin the buds.

Last year i was lucky enough that my plant was in the ground and had a old canopy tent so it had enough clearance between the colas where it wasnt touching the plant.
The tent ended up breaking because the legs were giving out.

Il go search for some photos for ya this evening Keith when i got some time. A good series you can watch for some solid home growing i found last year on Youtube.
Growing your greens TD series, it has a lot of great information about growing big outdoors home grown. Ive used countless methods i saw. I think the series consists of 2 seasons documented
Aswell MendoDope is another great channel. They also grow organic cannabis and they have some truly stunning plants crazy how big some growers can get there plants.
Looking great and all different colors! Just goes to show that not all green needs to be the same green.

Are you going to buy up what you have room/money for or start figuring out what to move to next?
