Since you brought up 
ladybugs…
Here’s a couple of things that I found on my beastly plant. 8-foot block wall behind it.
I caught these rascals and pulled them off with a different leaf…
Bow-chika-bow-bow!
Here is one of their progeny. I never knew that this is what ladybug larval stage looked like. They are supposed to be more prolific in eating aphids than the adults are! Scary looking rascals for sure. Helps to keep predators off of them.
Natures pruning sheers right their. Shes a beast man! Good luck, hope she survives through the storm.
I got a piece of framing left from a pop up greenhouse I had. Thinking to mount that behind it tomorrow as an extra brace🤔
We’re still okay 
Tape and poles held, put that frame behind it and tied it in. Jus have to wait n see what wilts in the next few days. Then see about taking anymore weight off.
Try cuttin the weight down, trim the big leaves, all the non productivity stems
Nice, thats an incredible plant. Gonna be some more tying come flower time. Might look into some 6in garden netting and wrap it up before flowers start growing. I buy it on amazon. Pretty cheap, like 10 bucks for 5’ x 30’. Imo🤙
Yup I use the same for beans n cucumbers frames
Got her opened up a little bit…as y’all can see the site manager is here keeping an eye on things.
Got a little more to pull then I’ll let her rest
Stopping in with an update.
Looking excellent. No signs of wilting at any of the break points yet so I’m gonna say they’re probably knotting up.
Did some more clearing n adjusted the ties…she’s standing on her again so I brought em in a little.
Hope yalls weekend went well
Leaves keep comin…I keep snippin.
What I love about big plants…don’t have to be shy with pruning.
The downside…doing the actual pruning 
I’m a lil late to the party but @Growmoredank has been puttin in work on this! Support!
Thank you @NoPeep I appreciate you!
Your plant is monsterous!
Congrats!
I tried germinating a bunch of seeds…all duds…or so I thought…I might have gotten lucky!
I hope you have a wonderful day!
