Three CHP female F2 seeds were sown on Feb 20, all three germinated by Feb 26.
Three Pineapple Female F2 seeds were sown on Feb 20, all three germinated by Feb 25.

The Pineapple seedlings are exhibiting what i would call rampant growth when compared to the CHP seedlings.
For some reason, they are right at three times the size of the CHP seedlings.
The foliage on both is somewhat wispy, almost like foliage on a heart.

Planted out 4/5 no germination yet.
Restarted 4/12

If anything I'll end up with 18 seedlings

Interesting Ken. My seedlings are not discernible one from the other and I wouldn't describe them as wispy. Not yet anyway. They are among the most robust looking variety of the 30 or so varieties I've got going. Then again mine are younger. I started them on March 30 I believe.

Gaston, good luck to you. Let us know.

Re-starts from the 4/13-14/14 group are beginning to germinate on 4/16.
Counted 2/9 this evening, so I'll mark those as quick germination
and I'll keep an eye out over the next 7 days.
