Thanks fellas, they really are moving at a good clip so far.

Looking really good! What size pot are you planning to grow them out in?

That's a good question. They will likely end up in 7 gallon fabric pots. I have 3, 5 and 7 fabric on hand and I think a couple 1 or 2gal plastic, probably go into those from the solo cups and into the 7gal fabric down the road.

Hey folks, just a lazy day 12 Saturday around these parts 
Pulled these two from the bottom of the tent for a photo earlier. Roots are developing fast and coming out of the bottom of the cups. I'll probably pot these ladies up sometime next week.
Next watering will be at 2g/gal Mega Crop and plain tap water.

Wowza am I ever behind on updates.... Time to get things caught up! We left off on day 12 with things perky, happy and healthy as can be.
Day 13 was more of the same
Day 15 things still moving along nicely.
Enter day 16.
Somewhere between day 15 and 16, I totally forgot to water my babies. It was a rather low humidity night and after enjoying a rather large quantity of my delicious home grown varieties they went rather dry. I woke up the next morning during lights off to find some sad little ladies. They were quickly watered during lights out and I went to inspect more when the lights came back on.
They were stressed out from drying out and then subsequently over watered. I checked BS2's roots and figured why not take this opportunity to pot up.
Day 17
Since potting up BS2 the previous day I figured why not just do the same for BS1 despite the issues. BS1 showing leaf deficiencies related to over watering. BS2 slowly perking up.
One thing to note. BS1 root development was pitiful compared to BS2's vigor, I didn't get a picture of it but there were definitely some issues going on.

Day 22 -
Day 23 (current day) - Things are finally starting to get back to where I want them. It's been a bit of an up and down ride the last 10 days or so.

I just binge watched and I'm all caught up. Looking great! They are back and happy.

There must be some sort of connection there, no?
BTW, my Mom could never make me eat the brussel sprouts
