What do you guys do with your runts? Any suggestions or theories on wether to keep them or not. Are they just a waste of space? You tell me hahaha I have one but I don't know what to do with it.

If I don't have anything to fill the space I grow them. Besides, I have seen some impressive things happen to those runts after you flip to flower.

I like to plant them in random places. I live in the deep south so it never gets cold enough to freeze a plant here. I just planted a few left overs from my last grow and they are doing great.

I recall reading (years ago) about impressive things happening to runts as well. I have one going now, it was a freebe sleestack x skunk. I only sprouted one.

I thought it would die, but it started growing about 2 weeks ago.

I am going to keep it going and see what happens.

exactly...if you have the room why not, it may turn out to be impressive, if not, nothing lost

All I grow are runts, its the big ones that throw me off and then I have to figure out what to do with those!

Runts can SURPRISE you! I had one 2 years ago, planted her outside in the wood and a few weeks before flowering she blazed up out of nowhere! Never trash them imo...

If I have a few healthy plants and not much room, I personally chuck them. I never had much luck with getting anything worthwhile from them, so I cull the herd and focus on the good ones.

They are great for experimentation. Extreme supercropping, new hydro and lighting designs, stress testing etc-

I currently have three girls nearly ready for harvest, and the runt during veg is now the biggest and baddest in the pack.
