1×N quadratic growth is a one-cell-thick pattern found by Stephen Silver on April 20, 2011.[1] At N = 1013783, it is the first such pattern to exhibit quadratic growth. It uses the breeder from Nick Gotts' 26-cell quadratic growth, which is incrementally constructed by colliding LWSS streams travelling parallel to the baseline.[2]

On November 6, 2014, Chris Cain completed a 14812 × 1 pattern that exhibits quadratic growth, and on November 9 he reduced this to 7242 × 1.[3] The pattern was further reduced to 2596 × 1 allegedly in October 2015, but it was not reported until 2017.[4]

As of December 2022, none of the 256 × 1 pseudorandom soups run by apgsearch under the "1x256" pseudosymmetry[5] appear to exhibit quadratic growth.
