Not much to report. They are still sitting in dirt under grow lights for 16 hours a day. I am avoiding the instinct to dig them up to see if roots are growing. Top has tried out a bit, and the bigger one tends to get some mold as it dries up.
I have been really slow to water as I know they are susceptible to root rot when young, but they are quite dry so will probably give them a light water this weekend. The room has been kept at 78-85 degrees, 70% humidity.
Any advice is welcome. Thanks all.
