Ever seen this?

Hi - 2nd grow ever and just started for a client 2 weeks ago... Will add info on method if needed, (indoors/Hydro drip/Hydroton/Adv.Nut's. MGB) but this is a question about what is growning!

Started Autoflower seeds from Sagarmatha - Smurfberry. what the client requested. Starting the 3rd week now but the leaves appear 'other than normal' to me.

Has anyone grown this strain before or maybe someone can give me an idea of whether this appears 'normal' for 2 weeks growth?

I don't want to kill them off if there's a chance they'll continue and develop as expected - but timing is important to the client.

So... here's the image - what do you think?

Thanks -

I'm not familar with the strain, but the plant (and plants) look healthy.

The size variation is a product of growing from seeds, there will always be bigones and littleones. Some of this size variation may equalize some with time. Just don't expect them to be all the same size, like you would growing clones from one mother.

What timing is your client concerned about? How fast they will finish? or?

Thanks all for the input so far.

- disrupt86 and DreadedHermie - I sure hope you're NOT right ... since they're supposed to be feminized seeds! Sure, poop happens, but that's what the client is worried about --- that I'll wait the entire 9 weeks or so (should be start to finish in 8-9 weeks per seed house) and get weak quality or males with little useful product.

- Oldmac - Thanks also for the input. Guess I'll wait and see what happens next week when I switch from MH to HPS. The last (and 1st grow I did) was also an autoflower, but from another seed company and while it also grew pretty fast - it's leaves were of more 'traditional' size and shape. Looked more like what I've seen in magazines, etc.

Thanks again folks - really appreciate the input. I'll keep you updated.

Hi Folks -

Well... the ballast on my lamp broke several days ago and I'm waiting for the replacement to arrive. Have put some CFL's in the box but I don't think the plants are too happy.

Hoping the new ballast arrives today or tomorrow, but haven't gotten any shipping or tracking notice yet.

Sad, but right now I'm not hopeful for my clients project. Happily she has something lined up for the next project if this doesn't snap back once the real light is back, but it would be a shame to have lost this one.

Will keep you posted - wish us luck -
