I won the 10 seeds from Barneys a while ago (LSD autos). After last harvest I rotated these seeds in. 2/3 germinated successfully! They are about two and a half weeks into veg atm. Cut my feeding schedule back by 25% down to 50% of total recommended by Floraflex nutrients. Plant on the right started a little later since the seed before it would not surface after developing a tap root. Starting to smell wonderful. Thank you again for the opportunity to try these seeds. Thank you @Team Vault. will update periodically! Take care of yourself and your plants!

unfortunately this crop ended up with mold I did not discover until drying. the one test nug I dried overnight had a very nice terp profile and had desired effects, just very sad I found mold on the last cola on the first of two plants. It was my first run with autos and I was recovering from surgery so I was not able to give them the daily attention the ladies needed during stretch so they ended up bleaching and teaching me a few lessons. The phenos I popped grew fox tails like crazy but that could have been due to the stress they received from my not moving the light up and not horizontally training the gals as much. Took a day off and cleaned up the tent to germ the next day on a set of Ethos Grandpas Stash R2 (Sunset Skunk x Afghan kush x OG kush) I may try the LSD again after hopefully refiling my medicine collection. Man does mold suck!

Test nug tasted better than my last grow, just couldn't risk the mold having transferred to the rest of the nugs :( Smoke was clean and terpy. I need to snag a terp kit somewhere to get a true baseline for the different smells, if that sort of thing even exits'!

Sorry to hear about your crop. Any idea how mold may have let itself in? It’s important to try and pinpoint where things went wrong so you can try to prevent it in the future.
As far as a terpene identification, I have a couple charts I took screenshots of. Hope they help.

sweet thank you. saved the images to my local folder! As for how the mold got in, its been a humid summer here. I am positive it made its way in during dry thanks to the humidity this summer. I vent directly outside so when the exhaust isnt blowing out, it may be leaking high humidity in. Next dry I plan on goin from 2 to 3 fans in the drying tent. It was white mio0ld on the center stem of the main cola of the first plant.

You get mold more from bad air circulation than humidity
Bit strange like
Maybe near the main stem had like canopy in the way the oscillating fan isn't strong enough

Wee tip I think is good for plants might sound daft but see say your main head know it's a big bud but it's about 10 buds stuck together
Try and pull the buds away from the stem use thier wee leaves last 2 or 3 weeks
It's good for circulation but I think it makes them denser as well
