Awesome progress, they look great. Those dwarf potato leaf varieties are so cool, between you and Gerardo you guys have some healthy looking Sweet Scarlet plants. I cant wait to start potting mine up.

Good looking plants, and lots of room to grow yet in those nice pots.
Dwarfs have lovely foliage I think. And such a nice growth habit.

It's a day early for the weekly update, but I was too exited when I got home and saw the progress. I upped the EC of my fert on one plant last night and wow.
Sneak peek for tommorows full update:
