I maybe should have started the seedlings a week sooner or so.
I placed them in with the beast so that them being shaded would initiate a stretch for the light.
Sure enough they started fattening up their fan leaves. Stretching the petioles of the fan leaves longer in search for the light. And the internodal distance of the entire stalk of the plant is increasing as well.
They are definitely stretching for the light. They could very well reach it within a week or 2 If I keep the single cola training going. That way the focus can be on growing the top shoot higher and faster.
But the beast is speeding up too so it may maintain the lead before everything works out.
We will see how things go.
Worst case scenario maybe the single cola ladies will rocket for the light once initiated to flower. I've seen some good looking single cola ladies online before. For example.

If I got some of those things it would work out nicely :cool:
