Seedling ahead of others?

[southbayLA154]

So i have some seedlings but one seedling is at its second node while the rest are still on there first even tho they were all germinated at the same time . But tht one seedling is ahead of all of them could it have been to transplant shock or something due to others being behind ? Here are some pics any help or advice will be appreciated the ones in the cups are the ones im talking bout which are bagseeds also have 2 feminized skywalker ogs started a week later in those 2 black square pots..

Main concern is why are they behind the one thts on its second node if they were germinated the same day

Some plants grow faster than others.
How long since they sprouted?
Is that coco?

I wouldn't worry about it to much...seedlings grow at different rates. That one just happens to be vigorous. In my experience those seedlings that take off like that and are taller than the rest of the pack are often males.. not always but quite regularly, I've noticed the males try to get a head start so they can drop pollen over the females.

Yes this is what i was thinking , specially bout the male part .. doesnt that suck lol like wow this plant is growing so good but thts cause it might be a male what a bummer ill keep an eye on it tho ..

Should i get rid of it or wait it out till i can determine more accurately

Yes they are in coco/perlite, roots are coming out the bottom but they will be on week 3 from seed monday
this isnt a reason too transplant just yet right? I did a wet to dry cycle 2nd week to get the roots looking for water but ive be keeping them moist from then on with light feeding of nutes floraseries

 

[southbayLA154]

Appreciate the help guys , so nothing to worry bout then , i will keep my eyes on tht one plant for the possibility of being male .. aswell as the other bagseeds

 

[Max Ehrmann]

For sure wait until it shows pre flowers...I've seen some VERY vigorous females as well. Some of those can be fun to flower.

I don't see any perlite.
So they will be 2 full weeks old from sprout on monday?
They're not ready for transplant yet........but when you do, you might consider adding about 30% perlite to your coco.
Coco is not soil and should never get dry........ever.
Feeding daily to run replenishes the nutes, pulls in fresh oxygen to the roots, and prevents salt build up.

Good luck.

I'm confused on their age.
How many days has it been since they sprouted into the world?

Alright got it , 21 days since they broke soil

Yeah forgot to mention , theres a layer of just coco on top . Im a neat freak i like it too look simple, flush and clean if u get me there is a coco/perlit mix under tht layer of coco

21 days since they broke soil ,

 

[MickFoster]

21 days since they broke soil ,

Ok.
It could be the lighting but they look yellowish.......like they need food.
They are definitely behind.......even your biggest one is a little behind.

I'm not trying to show off or embarrass you.......these plants are 21 days from sprout for a comparison.
I simply fed daily with weak nutes to run off starting around day 3.......it's typical growth for me.

Good luck.

 

[southbayLA154]

Yeah this my 2nd grow back after starting a few years go .. Yeah its the food theyve just got there first feeding of nutes i was just using plain r/o water and start feeding from the the start Yeah ill definitely water to run off also . But no worries Thanks it gives me some insight. now i know where i should be at now at this stage of growth.. ill check out the t5 i had them under im not sure if it could be going out

 

[MickFoster]

Put your t5 within 4 or 5 inches from the tops of the plants.
I don't know if I mentioned.......never plain water.
