handicapped seedling (pics)

[burnable]

Kind of a small matter, but I've had several consecutive healthy plants and I've never killed a plant, but this one seedling isn't showing promise. It's a Northern Lights x big bud from nirvana and I'm getting a ripe female out of another seed from the same order. The seed wouldn't break free and the seedling was crippled so after I manually removed the seed-shells a few weak leaves have come out, but it's been over a month and this is all it's done. Should I scrap it?

I really don't need an expert analysis, just an average opinion. If you had this seedling and this is all the progress it's made in 6 weeks, would you throw it away or not?

[soundslikewill]

yeah dude
from the looks of that i would peace it.

I think I gather from context that that means dispose of it. tanks

Take that fork, dig it out, and plant it again about a 1/2" down from the first set of leaves and it will make you glad you did...give it loving care..like a new baby...and it will reward you by growing...:thumbsup:

[aonymity]

as above was said... adding to it put a fan on it, make it stronger

Yep. Don't give up yet. I have a plant that, at about 10 days old was molested by a squirrel while getting some sun outside. I mean it was cut clean through about 1/2 way up the stem. I didn't have any cloning gel, but just poked a hole in the soil with my pinky, stuck it down in the hole, packed the soil around it, and have kept it real moist. For two days it looked like a hopeless effort, but now, a week later, it has perked-up. I can just visualize the little roots coming out of the stem down there trying really hard to get a good grip to keep itself alive. Really kinda surprised, but it certainly seems to have a will to survive.

Oh yeah.....I talk to it in a very supportive way also. lol

i love being supportive...but... it looks very stretched and mutant, if u have others i would just throw it out, however it might grow some good leaves and nodes, but its not going to be much, ive had a slight mutant grow to be a nice plant with one or two mutant nodes, its up to you wether or not you want to scrap it, becuase it will grow, but it might stay a mutant. i wouldnt count on it so to say.

Looks kinda strange to me, real stringy looking.

lol man if my plants looked like that by 2 week i would pull them out lol but um? maybe if you plant them in a bigger area and put a fan on them for now and make the steam a little strronger they may do all right lol i dont know man! well good luck peace
