Firstly gratz on a great grow. I know this is a bit late but I wanted to shed some light on the twisted leaf in your early pictures. After reading that post I noticed you used superthrive within the first month of grow.
Superthrive consists of powerful auxins and I'd never recommend this product for seedlings although it's an excellent stress reliever & contains naphthalene acetic acid so makes it great for cloning.
I cannot explain why because I don't know the full run down of the total hormone list in superthrive but about 8 years ago I done some experimenting with some seeds using superthrive and nearly all that had a dose more than 2ml per 10 ltr water had twists in their leaves. I have a theory ...
Auxins on a cellular level are responsible for cell growth & death. They influence both cell division and cellular expansion. Concentration levels affect cell differentiation and specification of the cell fate.
A seed is loaded with all the auxin it needs at the levels it needs so if you add more auxin it could trigger off cell division that causes mutations like yours.
Cheers
