Hello guys, I would like to clear a doubt with you, someone here has already sowed Binata "small red form", would you know how to tell me if she becomes red after becoming an adult? Because I have one with that classification, and so far it hasn't turned red.

From what I remember about the initial description of it, it is not a miniature form of binata, just smaller than the average typical binata. In lower light, it will stay small and red, but in higher light it will get bigger and go green.

Hello ChefDean, thanks for answering, when I get back from my trip I will bring the plants closer to the lights, I like the red plants. By the way, this was the fastest species I have ever germinated, in just 9 days.

I grew out the same seeds and they are in fact binata "small red form", although they'll only color up to full potential under strong light.

These are my Grogu seedlings. They are not under super bright lights but they are definitely coloring up the older they get.
