Seedlings going from 1 to 5 tipped leaves

I germinated some seeds 2 weeks ago today, used paper towel method. After three days, I planted them in 16 oz water bottles filled with Miracle Grow Seedling mix or something, and sprinkled a little root stimulant the root hole for the plants. There were about 13 plants, and on two of them, the leaf tips have jumped from 1 tip to 5 tips. Wondering if anyone has seen this before?

i had one do that b4 skip the 3s and just do 5 it was a freak every time i topped it - it would bust 3 new nodes not 2. if i remember right it was just some crappy bagseed that turned out pretty good.

Could have been the root stimulant. Strong healthy roots are what makes the plant grow well.

Here's a pic. I just moved 4 of them into bigger pots. They're under 3 65W CFLs right now, I have a 600 Watt HID I'm going to through on them when they get a little bigger.
