In two weeks they will look completely different.
 
Keep it green!
 
after dealing with these solocups i think i will just order 10 trays and 2.5 or 3.5 inch square pots for next year. the cups just don't fit perfectly and there is lots of wasted space.
 
welp, added some nutes to my water as some of them are growing 2nd set of leaves and some of them look a little unhappy. Also some of mine were drying out faster than the others so like 5 out of 60 were a little withered/thirsty looking.
 
money shot

well my plants are growin along, perked up nicely after watering.
 
i had some chili + have to add my pepper flakes separate from the rest of the family. Chili feels good when it's in the single digits.

this guy has some white leaves not sure what's up but he appears to be growing fine..

Is the guy with white leaves a baccatum? My Aji Habaneros looked a bit bleached as well. I moved them to the side of the lights, and eased up on the watering, they greened up a bit.
 
Mystery grow! :P
 
Last year, I grew a bunch of kohlrabi that were supposed to be cabbages, so I've been strict about keeping notes and labeling things. Even being cautious, I have a few that MAY be not what they're supposed to be.

So i was organized when i started out, but after making 3 moves to different rooms and the fact that i didnt label each individual cup, i don't really know what is what anymore  :rofl:  :rofl:
Lol...I have never been that bad off...but mysteries happen to us all. As long as you know what you planted and they grow true figuring it out won't be too bad.

Got hot enough i could Open the garage and give my plants some fresh air!
Perfect! I am watching the Olympics...so fits right in!
Your white tipped plant looks like it got burned. Any chance those leaves got up against the lights?

no, its like 1ft away. Maybe it got water droplets on it and it magnified the light and burnt
 
Your 4 coty plant is probably really conjoined twins which happen sometimes.
 
What type of plant is the white tipped one and how is it growing compared to the others?
