There have been many years when seeds were hard to come by and I'd baby anything that grew. Slow growth didn't matter and a few of those plants grew up and gave me some nice smoke. But, for the most part they weren't worth the time or effort.
Today I plant a half dozen seeds every week for a several weeks until I have 5-6 strong fast growing plants and compost the stragglers.
There was one that caught my eye but just wasn't showing much growth compared to it's siblings. It looked good but damn, I wasn't about to put it in a pot or the garden with the others but I didn't have the heart to pull it so I tucked it in my herb garden ("herb" garden) in front of my Rosemary where it continued to grow very slowly.
Here it is at about 9 weeks of age. It will be interesting to see what happens. I'll try and update every week or so throughout the summer. Never know, with another 3+ months it may turn out all right. I'd wager when all is said and done it will produce much less than it's sisters. Hell, it could be a male. That would get it composted. We'll see.
Stay tuned...
