Hi all, first timer here, building a box and bubbleponic setup now.

My question/issue is that while I expect some seeds from Attitude in the next day or two, I already germed some bag seeds a while back - one popped a root - and is about 1 inch above the wool now. ( I packed hydroton and wool in a net pot in a bowl of water, until I get the tote going, should be in the next couple of days)

If my bag seed plant ends up female and is "ahead" of my attitude plants ( I know, maybe not very likely), will it be pretty much impossible to pull it out of an 8-gallon tote to harvest it, while leaving the other 3 plants in there?

I've seen pics of the roots and, well, I'm almost thinking of just throwing my little mystery plant away, lest it get in the way of the new seeds. but I also hate to throw away a perfectly good plant that has some potential.

Here is a pic of the box so far - still have a ways to go but it's framed and caulked at this point, and I have pretty much all the supplies.

You can harvest the buds early (if you really need to) and leave enough foliage behind that the plant and the roots stay alive till you harvest the others. Note though, that you will have to go to 12/12 at the same time.
