I'm using a tiny hydroponic system from Amazon to grow spinach 🙂 It's my first time using one and its been fun, although germination has been a pain.
I had one successful sprout after planting 5 (the green one in the second pic) After planting more I have this weird little guy pop up within 2 days. Is this normal?
Notes: Water pump runs 24hr a day, lighting is on 7-8 hours a day, and room temp is normal (around 67 degrees) I do have to lower the pH as its been pretty high, a little above 8.0, and the liquid balance came in today.

I don’t know but im here cuz it’s interesting
Nah you’re good. But you will want to put those stickers over the plastic that holds the plug. Otherwise it will mold eventually due to light exposure.
When sprouts do this, I take a pencil or something and cave in some coir in the plug so the sprout sits lower and can grip the coir from the crevices in the coir.
