All of my plants are growing weird - Pic inside

All of my plants are cloned from the same mother. All of them growing in a way I have never seen before, despite everything being the same as far as nutes/lights/humidity etc.

Transplanted 13 days ago from beer cups. They were starting to look this way then.

Weird curly new leaves - Single or 3 digit leaves on top - oddly dense on stem

BTW the strain is Diesel Grapefruit. I've been growing this strain for 4 cycles now. Never had them do this. They've given me a decent yield and a wonderful smoke. Great smelling.

I grow under 3x1000w HPS and 1x1000w MH. Temperature 75F and humidity at 50%.

Mom has been living under a 125w CFL for the past 8 weeks. She was a clone from the previous group.

That for sure looks like reveg. Are you sure all your timers are right? You didnt pull those clones from flower did you? Was the mother in flower before you put her in 18/6?

As far as if its bad... well they'll return to normal veg in a few weeks or so and be fine eventually.

Timers are right for sure. Mom was in the same room with the previous bunch of clones until they went 12/12 about 8 weeks ago and she moved under the CFL. I actually had her under 24/0 until just recently to 18/6 after I cut the clones.

Will it affect my yield or bud quality? I've been very happy so far.

Yep, it will cost you time is all. I'd say longer than a week though. I'd still keep searching for the reason why though, because plants just don't randomly do that.

I'd sure like to find the cause. I'll take a picture of Mom if it would help. She is sad looking now. I've cloned the hell out of her and shut off the light a few days ago intending to throw her in the shitpile since I was going to use one of these clones as the new mother. This mother is a 5th generation clone, could that be the cause?

I've gone a lot further than 5 generations and never seen anything like you have got going on. I still think there had to be a timer issue. Are there other plants in the same room not looking funky?

Well I see mom is showing the same weird growth. The clones were cut from her about 6 weeks ago. Under a dome in cubes for about 2 weeks, and then to beer cups for about 2 weeks. Under the dome and beer cups they were in a different room than mom and the light was 24/0. They've been under the main lights for about 2 weeks.

No timer in the mother room prior to cutting the clones. Just plugged in 24/7. Same with the clone room. Mother was not showing these signs when I cloned them. Well not obviously anyways.

Am I seeing white hairs on the mom? It looks like it went to flower. So it was in early flower when you took the clones it looks like, and now just like the clones its trying to reveg.

Yes, definitely white hairs on mom. But it wasn't very obvious when I cloned her. Perhaps I caught it right on the switch. I just can't figure out why she flowered under 24/0.

Thanks for all the replies. Now I need to figure out what triggered my mother into flowering. So weird.

Could colder temperatures trigger a premature flowering? The mother was in a colder part of the basement. About 60-65F.

Stress could have triggered years ago y 2 older brother grew some plants under 24 hour hps and they went away to work left setup on plants ran outa water and had tiny buds lol under 24 hours light freaky hey let me know what u find out

I wish I could figure out what stressed her. Of course I cut clones at exactly the wrong time. They look so weird and are growing so slowly.

I read today that having a plant under 24/0 can stress it so maybe thats what caused it.

My plants look so damned odd. I wish I could lose the fear they are stunted forever but some reading tells me people actually do this on purpose because it tends to make the plants fat and bushier than normal. Almost like what topping does.

Here is a fresh pic tonight and I can see how the plants are growing outwards rather than upwards. Weird ass mutants lol.

Yeah I have taken indoor finished plants and hardened them off and planted outdoors for a second flush and although they look funky they grow small and bushy with a little smaller yield than original, not noticable unless you are looking.
