Not much as of right now but we all know how slow the seedling stage can feel. This is 2 weeks after going into the shot glass

why did you cut the fan leafs on some of them.
chris.
Those are some clones I have going in the same tray. My understanding is that it reduces transpiration. The clones don't have roots to take water in yet but still transpire through the leaves. So trimming them reduces the surface area that let's water off. I'd love for a more seasoned grower to chime in tho as I know there are several other reasons people from the clone leaves.

I'd say that was a good explanation. Reduces transpiration and slows photosynthesis. Since there are no roots the clones can't support a huge amount of leaves so we gotta reduce the amount of surface area. It also helps with fitting more clones in a tray and who doesn't want MORE CLONES?!
