View Full Version : Double seedling stem?

hi,

I have just started growing, and I noticed one of my 5 seedlings was a little bit behind the other 4, at closer inspection i noticed it had possibly 4 first set of leaves coming through (after the first 2), and as I turned the pot round i saw it had a double stem, just splits into 2, not damaged or anything.

I was thinking maybe when i poked it as a taproot or whatever, it acted as being topped at the first node.

has anybody else had one? and had any growing problems such as stunted or just bad growth?

I will have my new camera soon to do a grow report and take a picture of this, I couldn't find any similar posts using the earch function.

cheers

I have seen this a few times... not with weed but with other plants..
your preference.

I would let it grow out : )

I have seen it many times, I call them twins. Sometime it just happends very rare but it does happen.

some strains have more deformaties than others, is this what you have ? one side will probly grow slower than the other.

not quite like that one, it's a single root leading to a single stem, that splits into two, it's a little bit behind the others with it having about 4 initial main leaves trying to come out, I will take a picture when my cam arrives (tomorrow probably).

I'm kind of interested to see if it will act as two main stems/colas, or just act like it's been topped, could potentially be a double plant in one, but perhaps would grow slower. Maybe zandor would know

we will see

got my camera today, so here are some pictures, it is currently 3 and a bit days old, from sprouting, and is behind the others in size by quite a bit, I will take pictures of them all soon for a grow report or something

That looks cool meloncoly.

Will they grow seperate ways or will they get entwined? It'd be interesting to see what happens :rolleyes:

That's a great pic by the mole - never seen that b4 either :D
