Tap Root the wrong way round - Growing up & out thru the rapid rooter

[shedhead]

Hi everyone, noob here with the first post of many!

One of the girls in the germ chamber poked what i thought was the start of a head up. turns out it was the tap root!

Saw this first thing this morning when it was curled over, have been out all day just come back and it had grown a bit more and aiming up twds the light & was obviously the tap root.

So cut open the rooter carefully and transplanted it the right way up without touching into a watered new one and put it under a humidity dome.

Do you think it's got a chance - tap root looked pretty healthy could see green tinge there where it met the bean.

It had been exposed to 50% humidity, air temp about 75 under the main LED grow light set on veg for 7 hrs.

No sign of tap emerging from the right end yet, will update and hopefully turn into a diary with a bit of luck.

Sorry no pics, was too concerned about getting it sorted - she was standing proud about 1cm above the soil

Well she's sprouted, seems a bit slow to grow compared to the rest but looks quite healthy in a small kind of way - no sign of root growth yet but first two proper leaves have emerged
