this is believe it or not a 10 week old plant. i've always neglected it more than the others because i never thought it would live. well, it's still alive. it also has 8 nodes in one spot on the stem.

i never clipped it. what should i do with it? have you ever seen something like this? my others from the same batch are all over 1 foot.

any weak or mutant genetics goes outside in my garden.

I bury them in MG potting mix outside and leave em alone, never touching them unless its to water them during a drought.

I have very little patience for males, mutants, and problematic plants. I just stick em outside and let mother nature do her thing to them.

:peace:

Looks neat, just a random genetic mutation. Like the previous post I would toss it since it looks like the mutation didn't benefit the plant. If the thing was as big as your other plants I'd say keep it, maybe even get some seeds from it, but that thing just looks...challenged

despite the experts opinions i'm going to keep this little fucker around and see what it does. i want to learn as much as i can in cultivating. i'll update with more pics in the future.

when planting from seeds, what percentage act weird? does this depend on the seed bank or in my case the bag i bought.

anyone seen extra benefits from mutants?

So............. After I moved house recently I acquired 4 plants (there were 15 empty ten gallon pots on the roof terrace) after a month 4 little seedlings popped their heads up, so I re planted them, killed 1 male as soon as he was recognizable and that has left me with 3 of the the most different Mutants I have seen! (apart from the middle female the other 2 are of indeterminate sex yet) they all started more or less the same size but as you will see from the pics are very different.

1 This is my first grow
2 They are outside on a terrace in Spain
3 Apart from a little food and plenty of water I am leaving them to mother nature
4 I will not be broken hearted whatever the outcome, it is a bit of fun really

The small one on the left has just been replanted but has been very pale for 1-2 weeks now?

The one in the middle started (auto-flowering) has some small buds and then realized it was the beginning of summer and started shooting branches out again.

The large one on the right with the yeti sized 3 prong fan leaves at the bottom is shooting up branches and looks very healthy but has not chosen a sex yet, is that strange? I have heard that they dont choose sex until the nights get longer (like some women i know)

Any comments, suggestions, thoughts, welcomed
(cant seem to upload all of the photos, here are the ones I managed)

Nice site BTW.
