You have plenty of time once they get going they mature fast I nuke every 3 or 4 days and wait until the pot drys out it will change once I get everything in the ground so a good rain you can wait 3 or 4 days excessive heat like last year I was watering 3 times a day and my tops still burned I know i lost a pound or more from heat stress then the powerdy mildew and let not forget about hard to see little bastards called catapiliars 
Yeah my plant’s look good right now but have alot to deal with down the road Hopefully this tri shield stops it

Yea honestly I don’t even want to big of plants just because of all the bullshit that comes with it lol if I can just get through the whole season I’ll be happy lol last year I harvested early because of powdery mildew and then when I bud washed I found like 2 baby caterpillars so I already know the bigger the plants the more bullshit I’ll be dealing with lol
O yea I just fed I’m pretty sure I over watered the run out is pretty excessive lol maybe I’m watering too much and that’s why they aren’t growing too fast now I know for next time less water lol

Cool thanks for the help yea I just decided to leave them outside and not bring them in the garage or anything I mean that runt has been in that solo cup and it’s still growing and I have never taken it inside lol it got downpoured on too these plants are pretty strong. Now I’m kind of worried though because I’m starting a new job Monday working way more hours than usual hope I can give the plants the time they need I think they will be fine.

@Nip have you ever tried insect frass??? That will also build up natural defenses to bugs and pests.

My experience it works good on adult bugs with chiton ecoskeletons. Specially Beatles and some of the smaller adult insects and mites. It doesn’t work the best on caterpillars per se. They don’t have the chiton exoskeleton yet.
BT is Still the best hands down for dealing with caterpillars. It’s all the fruit growers still use in the orchards. It messes up caterpillars from the inside out as they chew on the leafs. Literally erupts their digestive tract.
Nips, you basically just collect all your wild bugs, a couple nights in a row in a bucket with a flashlight. Or under a bright porch light. And manually crush them up into smaller bits. Then you let them rot in the bucket a couple of days like you would make a compost tea. The idea is the things that feed on the dead insects, are the things that also feed on the living insects. Basically infect them with the microbes that start to eat their dead insect friends. It works really well. The catches, it’s kind of slow. It takes time to infect all the bugs. The way around it is something you want to try to do on a regular schedule. But it is a valid, no chemical spray method.
The main differences it doesn’t knock them back overnight, like a Chemical spray would. It takes a little time to infect all the little buggies. It’s a great way if you have a field infested with one nasty bug like Japanese beetles or stink bugs.
