Ended up taking it down. No way I could make it look like anything other than what it is. Besides it was actually fairly easy to take apart. Can't wait to reassemble after work today and get the ladies back under some light. I just threw em in a big tote and stuffed em in the corner. It's just a fire alarm inspection so I'm not worried.
If u have a inspection bro I take two big totes from like Lowes or Walmart has the like $5-8$ n put the plant it one then flip the second tote on top then tape them together they don't know what's in it I did that like 10 times when I lived in the projects n they even did a inspection when I wasn't home n didn't find shitSo new sprouts are in the tent. As of yet its looking like the other 4 won't sprout. Overall about a 50% germ rate from this seed Co. Of that 50% germ rate we have a 25% defect rate.
Can't wait for the new beans to come.
So here's the ladies.

So I'm wondering if I should do the Uncle Ben's topping method on the bigger one? I've got exactly 4 weeks until I have to flip, so I'm thinking of tying it down a week or two before that rather than topping. I'll likely let the sprouts go as they are.
Here's a closeup of the bigger plant.

At the 5th node (growing) if the first leaves count? Only thing about UC's topping is cutting to the 2nd node. Would put the plant back about a month and it wouldn't be much more developed than it is now
Only reason for this is apartment inspection Oct 26. Labelled as 56 days flower. So I want to give ample time. An extra week or two flowering and about a week for drying. Tear down and restart with the new beans.
Other than that, I ended up pinching the stunted sprout's growth off Sunday afternoon. I figured instead of killing it I should have some fun. So far it looks like the part I pinched off is healing and not promoting anything else. I'll probably keep it alive as long as I can after this.
Oh and the new beans are on the way! I ordered a 12 pack of Jordan of the Islands' Burmese, and a pack of NorthernBerry and Sweet C99 (Sweet Skunk x Cindy 99) from Peak Seeds. I'll germ those just before my inspection and get things rolling.
Thanks guys!
Thanks dude I ended up just grabbing totes and throwing all the lights, fans, ducting, etc in there. Same with the plants just grabbed a tote and place them inside, tent went under the bed. Nobody mentioned anything not even the huge ass AC I've got in my window so I'm probably clear.
Good stuff. I've topped before but wanted to try this FIM method out. Looks like I'm getting 4 tops developing, but it's hard to tell at the moment.
Hey thanks for the reply that looks deadly! I just did my first small round of LST on it last night. This is it this morning. Sorry for the low quality pic, took it under the light quick before work.
should click through my thread in my signature i've grown gdp a few times i find its very temperature dependent if your going to get that dark violet color. i cant remember what i wrote in my journal but there may be some nice tidbits of information in there. oh and heres a pic
