Yank or Wait?

4 Alien Rift seedlings going. Bottom left looks wimpy, bottom right looks a little odd. I have other beans i'm excited to try, would you guys yank any of these based on current appearance?

No they just started let them grow

Far too early to make any decisions. Let them do their thing.

AngryPirate · Sep 17, 2018

Definitely agree with keeping them.

Keep them going it might just be a slow starting pheno. Doesn't mean it can't end up being your frostiest female.

I have hundreds of seeds, and limited space. Dirt is expensive. Rather cut my losses on a wimpy one sooner rather than later.

I can buy a bale of Pro-mix for $30 - 3.5 cubic feet compressed
Hardly a cost concern

Hehe.. Fun he says... That bale is 70 lbs. Is it bedroom safe? Any critters? I'm open to switching

Seems like the wrong place to make veiled threats about not growing. We are strangers and really don't care what you do in your life.

If you want to, tons of people give out good advice when you need it.

oh I see, then I would be planting several per pot and yanking them on a a set schedule, say 1 inch tall, then yank. repeat until
your last few, may as well let those grow out right?
best wishes, really

Hmm.. Yeah that's actually a great idea. I should probably just do 3 per, and yank the lamest.

That's generally a bad idea. If the roots entwine you can end up damaging the roots making the the selected stunted or worse. Not sure about yours but my roots in a week can grow a great deal.

Use solo cups very little soil needed and you can keep then in there for a good while until you make your selection. My seeds however cost far more than soil. But if cost is a concern for soil start building your own and reuse.
