I started these 2 at the same time as (most) of my Peyote criticals and so far these have stretched just a bit more. While one started showing its first "true leaves" in the first couple days the other is taking longer, I suspect because it had a harder time getting the seed casing off. In spite of that seedling not having any developed "true leaves" I opted to put it in a solo cup because its roots were starting to get out of control. I suspect now that it has the casing off the leaves will be here soon, I can see tiny little spots of growth but I cant pick them up with my camera yet

*1/8/19* I transplanted one of the LSD's into a 5 gallon last night and she seems to love it so far. Had an issue with a little bit of burned tips on her but Im fairly certain that was due to an inaccurate pH meter, I got some strips from my local hydro store and they all seem to be doing much better. Ive also started giving them roughly quarter strength Calmag, Fox Farms Grow Big and Fox Farms Big Bloom about every other watering. Theyre still on a 24 hour light schedule but I'll knock that down to 18 a couple days after everyone else gets transplanted and starts training. Now, one of the LSD's has developed some sort of strange mutation but still seems to be growing fairly well. It actualy didn't et any tip burn from the pH either so I'm not sure whats up with that little freak. Also I'm taking pictures with my growroom sunglasses over the camera, if anyone has any suggestions on how to get better photos let me know! **Update 1/10**Administered Neem Oil before lights out

Alright yall what do you think about the little mutant? I made sure to include many photos of her this week, I'm going to try to grow her but I don't know what exactly she did or if I should be doing anything to help her. If anyone knows why shes like this let me know :)

It's just usually a quirk of genetics...a lot of us have come out with a mutant here or there, odd leaf placement, missing parts, additional pieces or leaf tips.... I feel like she'll grow out the same nonetheless, just let her do her thing, shell let you know if she needs special treatment along the way. So far though she seems happy and healthy. Im glad you mentioned taking it down to 18, i always think plants enjoy a little rest, maybe it'll help reduce extra stress on her. Happy growing, look forward to seeing the mutant thrive.✌️

**1/16** The 2 LSD's are going very well, the mutant is starting to grow out normally and catch up with the others. I think its working on its 5th node but the lights are out right now so I'm not totally sure haha. Im hoping to start topping and LST-ing this week. Let me know what yall think of the nutrients I'm using, I was noticing slight yellowing on the bottom leaves on 2 of my peyote's so I've been giving them quarter strength nutes every other watering. Thanks!

***1/23/19*** Things are going fairly well, the mutant is still a bit frustratingly small and its side branches aren't too developed. Both plants have begun LST and the larger one got topped and is developing very well. **Update 1/27** These girls are going back to a 24 hour light schedule for at least this week, temps here in Michigan are just too cold to maintain without it **Update 1/28** The bigger LSD got some minor defoliation, I didn't even realize how many side branches it was developing because it was so damn bushy haha. Took off 5 leaves that were the biggest pains, I think itll really help those branches

**1/29/2019** The bigger LSD is doing very well, pulled 5 of the biggest leaves off her yesterday that were blocking light and she seems to be responding well. The little mutant is trying its best but at this point I'm not expecting a whole lot from it. I had to switch back to 24 hours of light because the weather this week is so bad theres no way for me to control the temps without it, but they seem to be responding well. Because of this and the smallness of the mutant and stunted peyote I started 2 auto amnesia seeds (they haven't popped yet but soon hopefully). Im hoping they can help me out since those plants just aren't going to give me what I need. Plus according to the breeder they should finish around the same time as everyone else so the closets getting packed haha **2/2/19** Just a quick note, I lollipopped the mutant (named daphne). Just some really tiny growth at the very bottom that wasn't gonna do much of anything anyways. Seems shes got more energy for the big branches now. There was also a big branch on the larger LSD (scooby) that was growing right out of the pot so I did a pretty major bend on it so its growing over and between the 2 main tops haha. Its kinda goofy lookin but shes getting big and strong! **2/4/19** I screwed up a little bit, I was training the bigger LSD plant and accidently snapped one of it's main colas right off and basically ended up topping it when I didn't mean to haha. These girls are being put in flower Feb 16th at the latest so hopefully they catch up in time. I took the top and am trying to clone it, itll have to be flipped at the same time as everyone else but I have it now so might as well see if I can do something with it haha Week 6 update will be tomorrow!

**2/5/19** Theyre both doing well, it looks like removing a lot of that tiny lower growth and keeping up with light defoliation has really helped the mutant. It grew a whole other side branch practically overnight without me noticing it, so shes up to 5 haha! I accidently topped one of the main colas on the bigger LSD, these girls are going into flower Feb. 16th at the latest so hopefully the new tops have enough time to develop a bit. I took the top and am trying to clone it, I'll have to give it the same schedule on the 16th as everyone else but itll be interesting to see what she ends up doing. I wasn't expecting to take any clones tho so I didn't have any rooting hormones. Just stuck her in a pod and have her humid under a clear solo cup

3/5/19 Sorry Im a day late updating the journals, I was super busy this week. These girls seem to be doing really well, bud development is a wee bit behind the Peyote Criticals but I think theyre still stretching a little bit. Really enjoying the bigger dose of Bloom nutes, gonna probably bump em up to a full dose over the course of the week

3/12/19 No complaints out of these girls this week, Ive been increasing their dose of big bloom and will add tiger bloom at quarter strength for their next watering. They seem to be loving it so far, no frost on these girls yet compared to the Peyotes but theyre supposed to take a little longer than those Also Ive been adjusting the exposure settings on my camers, let me know what yall think of these photos!

3/18/19 These girls seem to be taking longer to form buds than the Peyotes but theyre also supposed to take longer, other than that they seem to be doing great. Ive bumped them to a full dose of Big Bloom and a half dose of Tiger Bloom and they haven't shown any signs of not enjoying it. Hopefully the tiger bloom can help build those buds

Going well, taking up less water then the Peyotes but those are much closer to finishing than these. Id say somewhere between 10-20% cloudy trichomes.

4/1/19 These girls are going well, still mostly clear trichomes but the buds are starting to fatten up which I'm happy with. Not sure how much longer theyre going to go, the Peyote Criticals began their flush today but these girls have at least another week or two before theyre ready for that but hopefully they wont be too far behind

4/10/19 Sorry Im a couple days late on the update I haven't been home much the past couple days. These girls are doing well, starting to fatten up nicely, starting to get quite demanding with the nutes but theyre not quite ready for flushing yet. Im guessing itll probably be about another 2 weeks before I feel like I can start that cuz theyre just now starting to get some more cloudy trichomes. Still probably under 15% though

4/16/19 Sorry im a day late updating this one haha I came down with some other nasty thing somehow. These 2 girls are doing well though, I realized I was wrong about the timeframe the breeder says they'll be ready in though so I actually started flushing them yesterday (I was also way too sick to mix up nutes). So yeah they should be done in about 2 weeks not too far off from the amnesias They've been really fattening up and the trichomes are starting to mature more rapidly so they should turn out lovely

4/22/19 These girls are doing well, about halfway flushed and getting nice and frosty. They'll probably be harvested sometime next week so I'm hoping they bulk up a bit more but theyre nice and dense so I'm happy with them. Yall can look forward to probably 1 more regular update before they get the chop :) *update 4/23 The autos are in the dark tent now waiting to be chopped so I'm going to bump the lights down to 10 hours/day for these 2 to help get those trichomes matured

4/29/19 Not too much to report on with these 2 girls, still getting frostier and fatter but their trichomes are taking a long time to mature. They just got their 3rd flush last night but I think I'm going to let them go about another week and fit 1 more in. Ill be out of town for a little over a week mid may so I want them done and trimmed up by the time I'm gone, itll already be a hassle setting up the new plants with a babysitter while I'm gone so either way these girls are gonna get chopped soon **Update 5/1/19 Put these girls in the dark for their 3ish days last night, got home late off work and couldn't move em but its about time anyways. They'll most likely be chopped this weekend :) Ive got my hands full with the seedlings so itll be nice to have these done haha

5/5/19 These girls JUST got harvested, these photos were taken minutes after. About 1am Sunday so a day shy of 19 weeks, Ill be dry trimming them so expect final updates in about a week. Overall very pleased with these 2, really hoping for a nice yield off the bigger girl
