Trifoliate male for breeding?

I've just flipped to flower and was planning on doing another pollen chuck. This time I planned on pollinating a Pakistan Valley female from World of Seeds with a Shit male from Mr. Nice. The hope was to have a somewhat fast flowering indica for outdoor here in BC.

Unfortunately, I only ended up with one Shit male, which happens to be a mutant with three sets of leaves. It's always been a healthy, bushy plant, and it smells so nice, but I don't know if it's a waste of time trying to breed this type of plant. I heard something about them being unable to make viable seeds, but I have no idea if this is true or false, or if I'm thinking of something else altogether.

So hopefully someone here can shed some light on this situation for me. Is there any truth to them not being any good for breeding, or is that complete shit? I don't want to waste my time, or waste this beautiful Pakistan Valley female by filling it full of useless seeds, if that's even a possibility.

whorled phylotaxis. fine to breed with but not an inherited trait, so if it is healthy and vigorous, go for it.

the gene the makes it a third leaf like the autoflowering gene is recessive

it will take many crosses to establish it as a guarantee next time you grow it out

some breeding experience would be required

a lot of work for that 3rd leaf

good luck

Its a reaction to stress, marijuana has very stable genetics resistant to mutation, its how the species has done so well for so long and remained pretty much unchanged in shape or form for most of that time. The fact that you see mutations that arent breedable is because your stressing the dna and it dont replicate so good, s'why a lot of peeps experience this mutant growth revert back to normal.

Thanks everyone for the replies. I'll lock the three-headed Shit beast in the love shack with the Pakistani beauty and see what comes of it. The only particular trait I'm trying to reproduce is fast flowering so I'll have something to grow outdoor when it's finally legal here in Canada next summer. Should be fun. Thanks again.

its not mutant, its a trait, one that the plant grows out of by week 3, and its not whorled, whorled is a mutant that the plant can never grow out of.
