Well all of my sprouts this grow and past have stated with two round leaves then grown another two and then took off, But oddly one seed of the same kind as the others started with three leaves and grew three more.

Whats up with this.. is it a mutation, or what?

A infinite number of different phenotypes are possible within even the same strain.

"The unique characteristics of a plant result from the combination of genes in chromosomes present in each cell, collectively known as the genotype of that individual. The expression of a genotype, as influenced by the environment, creates a set of visible characteristics that we collectively term the phenotype. The function of propagation is to preserve special genotypes by choosing the proper technique to ensure replication of the desired characteristics."
