Welcoming your opinion here. These amaryllis all came from the same scape, but 3 different pods - a cross I made. They were planted in the same soil and have had the same treatment. But look at the difference in the sizes. The ones in the 2 red cups are only about 3" tall. They did not start out in the red cups - they were planted in a third container that I just split up for some friends, so I would have expected all of the seedling to be about the same size. And some seedling in the pots with tall seedling are also tiny. Since this is a cross of 2 hybrids, perhaps the disparity in size is genetic? Or just some better and lesser seeds? They all sprouted in April - some are still tiny, and others are already a good size. Anyone want to offer an opinion?
