Seed: Buddha auto mix
1 gal pot with recycled soil from the back yard garden with bottom of the pot with compost and manure .05-.05-.05
Hi this bean was germed with paper towel and baggy on july 2 and showed it head on july 4.
Where i live the temps are 85-95F in the day a 78-81f at night. Also it has rain almost day here with the humidity of 80% or more. I hope it stops rains when it flowers.

Due to the rain and me not able to get it out to rain on the day 7 (7-11) the one of first true leaves died.

At this point I sure I killed it. I placed it back in the yard and left it to die.

Day 17. I checked back on the plant. Yes it still alive. I have not need to water it at all, due to the daily afternoon rain.

As you can see I am missing one of the first true leaves. Then I get a two finger leaf mutant and then a standard 3 leaf. plant is still shorted than a Bic lighter.

Day 24 (7-28). I noticed the day before I the new growth on the top is twisted and fucked up. I started spraying HG 3 in 1 neem spray. I found a big green mite on the leaf second pic.

I also all the new growth is mutated with some more 2 finger leaves. I was about to say fuck this. I let it die. I jumped on ebay and bought a 1/2oz of avid ec for $14. I also gave water with aspirin 1 325mg to 1 gallon of water to contract the mite damage.

Day 28 (8-1) advid showed up. Mixed. 1.25ml to on gallon water. Sprayed plants with the whole area around. Will spray again in 3 days. and one last time in 3 more days. Will also use neem spray. Noticed the ugly mutated leaves.

Avid did it job. Did a follow up spray. New growth is no longer twisted and messed up.

She is now flowering. :wg's Cool:. Also above the LST the growth is good. All leaves under the lst are dead or dying. Not sure what that is or how to fix.

New update. Still almost raining very day. I have checked the rain fall for the last 30 day is 12-14inches. The rain season should be be slowing by sept. Temps are also still too F ing hot. Hitting 92-94 high to low of 78-80 at night.

She was dying in her current 1 gal pot.The soil was too compacted and had little drainage. All of the lower leafs where dying(turning yellow and then falling off.) There was no roots coming out of the bottom holes as there was some a week a go. Found better draining soil form a buddy compost piles that was full of earth worms. Transplanted to 3 gal pot. Noticed that the roots when transplanting where not white but dying brown. This transplant was on. 8-13 day 40. Today it still alive and the dying to slowed down and now getting some new growth on the top and some side buds. too.

Day 40. 8-13

Can I ask how many mega pixels is your camera?
 
What is lst
I saw the pic
Whats the point

That LST (low stress training). Was my very first try. I was done when she was very sick and had no side branches. Lesson learn do not lst when plant is sick.
The point is to get more budding sites. The only thing it did for me was make the plant about 3-4 inches shorter. I am just happy she still alive.
