You may be detecting my stress levels as they have been quite high and still are. Please know that I meant and still mean no harm and will continue to be as nice and kind as I can be but I don't have the energy now to carry anyone else's feelings. I do appreciate the kind words and encouragement. I never meant once to give you bad vibes or make you feel uncomfortable, even in this post.
I've laid it bare for the world to see from the first post. No reason to stop now. Although I do appreciate being anonymous I also have nothing to hide. There are few places - really just this place - where I feel I can let it all hang out without overly censoring myself.
To that end:
The boy had a couple of good days at school followed by today's ride home where he made the two people in the car with him feel threatened. I was finally able to get him to talk with me tonight because I had to let him know he was suspended from school and that his rides were on hold indefinitely. Also had to let him know that if he doesn't straighten up his act the school may decide to place him in an alternate setting. I was able to get him to admit to acting out deliberately. Don't know what he intends to accomplish other than sabotage. We talked for 1.5 hours through his door. The special ed supe told me today no one there called CPS so my suspicion that it was him is the most likely scenario. As far as I know that's the end of it, unless I hear differently I will consider it just that.
He actually opened up a little tonight. I told him he needs to apologize for making others feel threatened. Part of him is angry at me, part at himself, part at the whole world. Partly he wants things to be better but part doesn't believe it possible. The other part wants so much to believe and make things better and forgive and be forgiven. He is a jumbled mess right now. He wants to blame others for his own actions despite being told and warned.
What I hope is that he can change his attitude and that will lead to a change in his actions. We have a few days to work on this. Problem is I can't promise that a change will get him back in regular school or back on school transport. He's screwed it up for the time being. I just hope he can get himself together and salvage this so he has something to build on.
P.S. I don't mean to come across like a dick above. I'm just expressing my current state of exhaustion. It really is me and not you - no joke.

Of course I got some pictures tonight. After talking with the boy I went out and turned the kerosene heat on for about 30 minutes and got the garage temp into the 70's then turned it off. The electric is on the timer.
I had to stake Nikita tonight as branches were leaning over everywhere. I also had to tie some branches for support on several plants and I'm keeping my eye on others.
The newer clones look great after keeping the domes off so off they will stay.
The boy says he is taking the cannabis out of the kitchen cabinet. I hope he is and continues. He seemed to open up tonight to taking the medicine I made from tincture and added oil and placed into capsules as well as what I will be making from the harvest, maybe, but not sure. Stubborn, he is.
Anyway, here are some pictures.

One pic for the night.
Beautiful, it's a jungle in there.
Man that last NL pic stopped me in mid-scroll. The frost is amazing!
You can be as anonymous as you like on here, it doesn't stop us from caring. I wish you and Tangled the best of luck on this journey.

Thank you.
Thank you and thank you!
The bolded is the thing I love about this place and all of you. You are all great!
yes that is exactly what I’m detecting. Your not wrong for being stressed out. What you have going on is nothing short of a stressful situation.
I hope things turn around for you guys!
like shed said, it doesn’t stop us from caring. When I said (back away slowly) I wasn’t leaving, but more just giving you some space. I didn’t stop caring. I wish for an easy day for you guys!!
Have a great day!!
Your garden looks great btw! Getting nice and heavy, and frosty!!

hey ya'll,
i've been reading along for the last couple of days, relating and relieved. thanks to all of you for sharing. i don't want to reveal all my deepest life wisdom in a big long post (cause my wisdom isn't deep, so it wouldn't be a big long post), but emotions are universal and some resonate deeply. communication and expression of feelings keeps us sane. thank you for confirming we are all human alafornia. i hope the curiosity of the medicine allows for establishing a common place which feels safe for all. "don't get mad, get curious" words i heard a long time ago and i wish i could remember them when i get into "emotional response" mode. you're human, so are we. forgive yourself. love your family and give them a hug whenever you can. life is so good.

Thank you, @roaring lion . I love connecting in a real way. I also love self-deprecating humor.
I've had nothing but support here for what we are doing. I'm happy for that.

The kid let me buy him dinner tonight. He ate the same thing I did: chicken nuggets and fries from the local burger joint. First time he's let me do that for him in a week or so and only a few times in the past month or so.
Our conversation last night covered much more than I could in a post. I hope he is continuing to take the medicine.
We are continuing discussions with the school. I'm frustrated with them because they never seem to be able to meet on my off day and since them unilaterally stopping transportation presents a problem with informed consent as well as a change in placement we need to have one very soon.
Today seemed to be a calm day, which made it a good day.

Evening update:
Gonna be cold again tonight. Low in the teens, then a slight warming trend.
Tent temps have been good. Garage temps from 59 to 70s. RH in the 50s.
Pictured are the veg tent, kerosene and electric heaters, and the flower tent. I'm also including the clones in this update. The older clones seemed to be a little deficient prior to the transplant and are improving.
