I don't know about that but she looks in a great place and I've grown a fair amount of solo cups
I've never seen the leaf/size/day thing but, I do know that the weirdest most mutant plant seedlings I've seen on here end up being monsters in the end.
That said.... looks great!

Day 12
Some leaf crinkle maybe from temps/RH being less than ideal. Pleasantly satisfied with her though. Her roots are popping through 4/7 of the holes on the bottom. More roots more shoots more fruits right? I’ll have to get her suspended tonight so the roots air prune themselves. Right now she’s sitting directly on the ground which is also probably bad for temps as the ground isn’t insulated on this tent due to height restrictions in the basement. Thanks for looking
Day 14
Two weeks in, still having a crinkle to her leaf. Not overly concerned, laughably may have doubled up on the problem if it’s overly hot soil as I top dressed 1/2 tsp of Stonington Blend Plant Food(here forward known as SBPF). I stuck 8 popsicle sticks into the soil. Almost looks like Stonehenge.
Basically I will remove a popsicle stick and back fill with granular ferts (SBPF) over the life cycle of the plant. Maybe every five days starting on day 20? Something like that. Highdea! Plus I once read that roots were stimulated by running into objects perhaps it will lead to better interior rooting.

Nice to see you've got your Solo Cup adventure up and running
Will be watching with interest to see how you get on my friend
Keep the updates coming
Kind regards

Day 44
Long overdue update. She’s doing ok but has fungus gnats pretty heavy. I’ll check locally for some organic approved material like gnatrol. She’s a bit yellow, she’s gotten five 1 tsp doses of SBPF and I removed a single popsicle stick each time and backfilled with the granular ferts, incorporating the rest into the surface before watering to runoff. Overall nice plant structure so far but no flowering to speak of making it the longest I have personally seen before flower
Transitioning into a 3ft tent and starting a new 15g plant so I made my bonsai and this solo a makeshift house under my freshwater fish tank, dusty with electrical sketchily close should be newman approved. I’ll try to finish these out here so as not to introduce the fungus gnats to the next round. I strapped a vivosun vs1000 light under the tank running at 100% getting 600ppfd on top of canopy. Also since the SBPF isn’t keeping up with plant needs I added a few pumps of dr earths pure gold 1-1-1 fertilizer I bought once in clearance at malwart . You add pumps of the ferts to the soil and just water in, likely intended for houseplants but it’s OMRI listed so I went for it, maybe she’ll be greener next pic…. Or her tips will be burnt. I know when we added it to my wife’s houseplants they died shortly thereafter so fingers crossed
