Hello again all.. This is my second attempt at growing and you might remember me from the old posts but i got a new problem. I got two clones. there 14 days old. They both show growth and the leave colors are a good dark green. Problem is One of the plants has 2 growths with 3 pronged leaves instead of the normal 6- 9 coming off of it and they look wilted .is this even a problem? I will have pics soon but any ideas would be great.

set up - 5 gallon depot buckets with fox farm soil mixed with guano and perlite. I water with about 22 oz of water every 36 hours for each plant. In indirect light with humidity domes being used every other day or so.

Also, since i got you here.. should i inch the plants into direct light everyday? or can i just throw them under the suns power? how long or what should i look for before i decide to do so? Im searching the forums and not coming up with anything so links would be appreciated if you got them.

Don't know why the clones are in indirect light, they should be getting at least 18 hours of strong light per day if they are 14 days old. Also, you're watering needs to be improved. Only water when the pot feels light and the soil is barely moist a few inches down. Water THOROUGHLY, meaning so water freely pours out the drainage holes. Then, don't water again until the pot is light. 5 gallon pots should be able to last at least 4 days in between watering, more like 5. This will avoid any over watering (drowning of the roots). You can go ahead and put them in the sun if you dont have indoor lighting, and the leaves aren't a problem, just a genetic thing.
