i have a 845bobier that has been in the peat pot for 8 days and today i noticed that it had germed,but it has a club root, should i throw it out or keep it or will it have a chance to be normal plant.i was just wondering if anyone has good or bad luck with a club root seed

alledged that the 1502 Wallace grew from a clubroot, my 1313 was last year,,,not too uncommon just that most of us don't know if you germ in media (I had to peek since it took 8 days as well to germ)

I grew a small genetics plant last year from a seed that was a club root. The plant seemed to grow normally.

Paul,
When it happened to me, on the seed that grew my 1044 and 1096.5, no worries, just give it a little extra heat, wrap a mat around the pot if you have to, and give it a real light, and i mean real light drench of fish and seaweed to stimulate the growth, this is what Ron Wallace told me, and it worked out great both times!

One of my 1287 Vankooten plants last season was a club root. Extreemly agressive plant and also my fastest growing pumpkin until i damaged the main.
