Hello,
The first lophophora seedling of the batch has germinated and it looks quite strange. It is very thin and it is much smaller than normal. It is not because of too light as it probably is getting too much.
Sorry about the bad photo, it's quite hard to focus when your taking
a photo of some something in a bag.
Thank you for any replies.

It is either poorly or one without chlorophyll. In the latter case you need to graft it if you want it to survive.

Thanks Kees, I have checked it today and it hasn't got that much bigger but it has changed shape, is it ok?

That seedling looks OK to me. I have many that colour.
