It can happen, runts are not all that common, but they do occur. But then a number of times I have had a seedling lag way behind the others but by harvest time the slowpoke had turned into the best biggest most lush most productive plant of the crop.
Don't be quick to give up on it or assume it will not be of much value to you. It might never catch up to the rest, but then come harvest day it might the others look less impressive too.
I'm going to wait about a week and see what Happens. I'm glad to hear there is hope

i once had a clone planted in a guerrilla grow that never grew at all, stayed nice and green all year, but didnt grow an inch, just one leaf all year. fuking sickening it was....
That sounds like a shit deal man :/
that looks like a pretty big pot for that size of seeding, the roots may be growing as the pot is big the roots will grow then once there established then the plant will
Yeah didn't really think of that thank you
means hopefully it's growing strong "elsewhere".
I Came up with an idea last night while reading around. I think the problem started with the PH in the rockwool being unstable as it tends to be more acidic. This caused both the sprouts to be very dark green and almost look stunted in growth. The bubba kush was much much stronger at first, so i think it recovered, but i think the runt is having a hard time recovering for another factor as well .The embryo leaves that came up on the stunted sprout seemed very weak, very dark green and now seem like they have no green to them what so ever and look almost worthless to the plant. I read that this is it's first way of establishing a food source, via photosynthesis; the little guy has been struggling trying to grow it's new leaves, recover from the ph imbalance, while at the same time, trying to grow roots. With out the those Embryo leaves I think it is just having a hard time gathering food from the lights. On the bright side i Do see the leaves turning a nicer shade of light green, which I'm hoping means more food for the plant to obtain.
P.S. I never give up on my babies
maybe i can have a little pet sprout if it never grows.
