On this new run I have popped two Mephisto's beans. They are quite older freebies (#31 Sweet n Sour) and unfortunately only 2 germinated out of the 4 beans .

Now one of those 2 is weird.
I planted them both when they had a little taproot and the last one to sprout had a little white dot on its side.
A few days later and it hasn't changed very much, except for the whiteness. That seems to have spread?
This some sort of fungus or bacteria on it? Should i remove it or give it a chance?

It looks like some of the smutz from inside the shell is still surrounding the seedlings head. I'd mist it or add a drop of water on it and use a toothpick to gently see if it wants to separate or fall away from the seedling, my guess is it will. Don't force it tho, just be a gentle giant and have a feather touch and you'll be fine. If its not smutz from inside the seed shell I'm not sure.
 
Frosting up way too early :nono:
I guess it could be powdery mildew or some genetic defect? Hard to see clearly.. stem looks real yellow, maybe it died?
