Week 2 for all in 5 gallons, should I let the smallest two continue?

[Glizzy2x]

Hey everyone. All 4 strains in 5 gallons sprouted on 3/24/23. Same soil, water ph level, lighting etc. The two on the right are waaay bigger. All Dutch Passion seeds. The two smallest are Cinderella Jack (top - left) & Daiquiri Lime (which is supposed to be an xxl - bottom left). The bigger ones are Ultimate & Night Queen (top & bottom right respectively)

Should I leave em or pull em? Got some photos dropping today, might pop em as replacements.

I'd leave them or swap the places with them see if they takeoff

That’s a good idea. I thought about swapping. I wonder what’s causing it? I do have the intake flaps open on the left side. Think that light leak could be the cause?

I'd say on your left hand side have you a fan blowing hard on that side as with them both stunted on one side that's the only reason I'm thinking environment. As you seem to have your watering down to the same as the other but in saying that different strains can behave completely different from other plants

I'm not 100 but worth a shot

Also bro as far as I'm aware light leaks don't matter in veg and its more photos in flower you need to watch that so I don't think that's an issue but other folks have loads more experience than me

I can understand that perspective, the fan has always been on the left side, but so is the humidifier (to help narrow in my vpd). Do you think the humidifier is playing a part? Also true about the strains.

However I have those same strains running in a solo cup as well (wanted to try the challenge). That Diaquiri Lime is the biggest out of all (about a month old) & the CJ is 3rd behind it. I’m starting to wonder if those particular seeds are just duds.

I agree with you, that does make sense. For now I’ve switched them.

I also measured the ppfd using Photone to get a rough estimate of light. The ones in the back are getting slight more than the one on the front - still doesn’t make sense about the left/right.

i just thought something could be off that side as @leaff said maybe swap sides with your plants. also with you mentioning the solo cups I do love a solo grow as I've grown some bangers but I actually start every one of my plants in solo cups I feel it gives them a better start than straight into a big pot

Definitely just switched. I’m also thinking with the humidifier being on the left side directly beside the smaller two, the pots are not drying out as fast as the ones on the right.

I thought about starting in solo cups, however my greenhouse in town just ordered me some seedling/clone starters that you can directly plant into the soil once roots have been established.

If that doesn’t work, I’ll try Rockwell cubes.
