So these 2 seedlings come from the same seed packet and were grown under the same conditions. Does anyone know what’s going on with the smaller one? Added 2 more closeup pictures.
Genetics bud and maybe one became stunted for a plethora of reasons! This is a great example of why plants multiples of everything is always good to give yourself the opportunity for pheno hunting or selecting the better genes of the two. I would take seeds from the larger and not sow seeds from the stunted, obviously personal preferences of course
