so far so good... kind of
I ended up cutting off some of the fan leaves that already had half the blades snipped off when they were just baby clones rooting. Figured no point wasting the plants' resources on leaves that will die anyways, so focus on new growth.
I also introduced a small fan to the Homebox to keep cool air circulating, and also toughen those stems.
They look good so far; especially the BubbleGums. The NLX (in case I never mentioned, this is a NL x WW) have also been steadily growing, but I discovered something freaky yesterday: most of the new fan leaves are looking mutant! some have only 3 blades, some 4, some have 2 big blades and one small one,etc. Really weird!

I'll let them be, as long as the leaves do their job I really don't care how weird they look. Has anyone experienced this though?
The 1st pic attached is of the weird-lookin' leaves. The rest show the state of growth
