Day 9 - Mutant plant
Another one of my babies has decided to be weird. It's growing all lopsided - the leaves on the right side of the plant are twice as big as the matching leaves on the other side. And they're kind of twisted up too. I've ruled out heat/lighting burns, nutes (300ppm and the other plants are loving it), and pH (5.8). The only thing left is genetics or some sort of non-visible plant damage.
Whatever the case, this plant has helped me make a decission. I got rid of the soil portion of my grow. I got rid of the mutant plant and replaced it with the strongest of the two that were in soil. Got rid of the last soil plant as well (it had gone leggy from lack of light, anyway).
I think this will work out for the best. I can concentrate my energies on keeping the hydro grow going. And really, nine plants was way too many for my needs anyway. Hell, six plants is really too many....assuming they don't all end up male again lol.
I'll try to post some pics tonight.
P.S. For those who were curious, the hydro grown plants are already twice as big as the soil grown ones. In fact the last seedling that I added into the hydro (the one that sprouted almost 5 days after the others) is already the same size as the two soil grown seedlings.
