well with as little information as you provided i cant say anything really other then it looks like a healthy starter a week from breaking ground isnt bad at all considering the fact that root growth is more active during that time then vegetative growth is

from personal experience thats what it seems like roots will flourish if in a healthy environment way before the vegetative growth. on another note whats your PH at?

if its 6.5 your doing perfect was just curious because the stem seems really purple which can be signs of early deficiencies

i would personally wait to see what happens if it continues to show purple stems throughout the first month of veg growth id check into it other then that just let it grow imho

as i stated earlier its best to wait and see what happens further into veg at the moment throwing things at it left and right trying to fix a problem that might not even be a problem is a bad idea imho

That's the slowest part for me in hydro. It didn't used to be,I don't know what I've forgotten.
I've got 1 not quiet that big 'bout a month old it just started taking off, now purple stem is gone & it's growing good.
Last time same way ended up producing the most I've had.
