Has this happened to any of you ?

Hey legends, I'm on my 3rd grow atm, currently week 5 veg, first time using viparspectra xs1500 in a 2.5ft x 2.5ft tent and iv noticed what I assume is a good thing..... I think ? My plant has decided to throw 4 main stems per node without being topped, wich iv never seen or heard of before. My question is... is this a lucky mutation or induced by environmental conditions?

Don't knowthat i qualify as a "legend", in fact I'm pretty sure i don't, but That's something special in my book. That first shot i thought just tight internodes but that second shot!
Wow!
I'd clone her to see if it carries over. Then flip a clone for fems. That's exciting! What is she? Where'd you get her? Are her branches the same?

All the branches are the same minus 1 I accidentally chopped off when I was defoliating yesterday, this plant is a result of accidentally crossing my GDP with gorilla glue during my first grow, if I clone her will the clones throw out the same structure as the mother or would it just follow the normal growth like a normal branch would ?

Don't know. Let's find out!
Unless it is a stress induced mutation, which i saw no signs of stress, it should carry over.

Interesting, I've had em grow three but never four. Really cool!

take clones take clones, ive had them grow three also, but never 4, you must take a clone or two and find out if it will continue to produce 4

Yes!.. take cuttings!... you never know, she might be a short and squatty low yielder, but then again, maybe not!, but def make a copy, and see how she finishes.

It may not be either,It may be an adaptation to generations of training.

Well that's pretty cool. I don't know what else to say other than what everyone else is saying, take cuttings, make clones.

If you can reproduce consistently, you might just have something special

whorled phyllotaxy. Cool to find but I have never seen this mutation be an indicator of anything extra special.

I thought that had to do with leaf structure ? It effect limbs too? Interesting

Im kinda surprised something like that hasn’t been bred through already . Is that something a breeder could isolate. Idk but pretty cool

Yeah plus its a damn hard trait to stabilise or there would already be many strains that consistently show this trait on the market and as far as im aware there is not

Update on the grow for you guys, shes Turing out to be a beast .... topped only once and her crown is producing 9 cola sites ,

It has 4 branches per node how is that in itself not special. The weed may be typical grade for that cultivar, but that structure makes her something people would drop some serious dough on. I had to hunt down this thread to show a commercial grower friend. He lost his shit about her begging how to get a hold of one.

lol 2 chickens in one egg comes to mind!! these things do happen, nice one

It says well-known member under your name. Put your legend sash on. The commencement is starting.

So sick!
