Peyote Purple, mutation or sickness?

[high-flyerP]

Haii all,

I have two peyote purples, germinated since 2wks ago. One is doing good yet a bit drooping but the other has really weird growth. I believe it is a mutation but I wanna hear from you guys if you have the same experience with Peyote Purple and if you do, I would love to know how it ended.
I appreciate all inputs.

Thanks!

Good question, I've seen that look periodically over the past 22 yrs. of growing but not when I grew the PP. If it were me, I'd gently check out the roots and if they were as undeveloped as the upper part I'd say it was just sickly, but if the roots were healthy I'd say possible mutant.

I have had one or two of those and let them grow into plants. Very slow to grow at first and need a lot of care but it can grow into a full-size plant.

That looks like the leaves are being deformed by mites. The damaged plant can still grow out of it with time.

Thanks for your input! I feel like it can be caused by sickness due to the plant suffered while germination and I bet it suffered from rooting as well.
I'm excited to see how this ends up tho

Wow, that sounds really relieving to me
As long as I can finish this one, I'm glad about it
Just wanna see how this end up!

Do you mean that the small plant with weird growth can be caused by mites as well?

If there are mites on one plant there are most likely mites on both. The deformed leaves happen when mites eat the edge of the leaf.

The way forward is to:

1) Treat both with some kind of miticide or insecticide.
2) Water thoroughly and slowly, and only water again when the top of the soil is still dry when the lights go on.
3) Feed a high P/K late flowering nutrient at 200PPM and epsom salt (MgSO4) at 50PPM. P stimulates root growth better than any root stimulator, K results in healthy silvery green stems that let lots of nutrients through, and magnesium in the epsom salt results in healthy phototropic leaves.
4) Foliar spray twice a week with water.

On foliar spraying:

- Always disinfect/clean the sprayer with bleach, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), preferrably immediatly after use, and store it with some water with bleach/H2O2 in it. Thoroughly rinse with clean water and spray for at least 30 seconds to clear the nozzle, before emptying and filling with nutrients/fermented hempsprout water.
- Spray with a light mist to get everything wet, and then use a powerful spray on the underside of the leaves and then top, starting with the top of the plant working to the bottom. This will dislodge most insects, and at least set them back a lot. Repeated twice a week, it gets rid of a lot of pests.
- I like to spray a bottle cap per gallon of fermented, hemp sprouts. (Sprout hemp seeds from a fishing store, fill a container 1/5 full of the hemp sprouts, 1/5 of cane or any raw sugar and top up with water. Close it airtight. Use a fermentation lock to let CO2 out and prevent O2 getting in. Put in a warm dark place and leave it alone for at least a week.).

This is a fantastic foliar feed with cannabis specific nutrients, hormones, mycorrhizal fungal spores, and fermented sugars to feed and stimulate the fungi in the plants. I have seen it kill leaf miners in the leaf.

Wow, thanks a lot for those infos. Especially the last part sounds so much interesting to me.

Borophyll? It's something related to boron and chlorophyll?
