I'm pretty sure it's genetics. Most of the time I don't let the males grow enough to stay anything but perfectly symmetrical, but I'm almost 100% positive that I've seen alternating branching on a male before. I've also had several females that stayed perfectly symmetrical all the way from seed to harvest.
Mr. Clandestine Reviewed by Mr. Clandestine on . alternating nodes just silly stump questions .do all plants that are female alternate nodes? is this a sure sign of a female plant? b4 flower do they alternate once they have gotten mature? one guy tells me that its a species thing the other says only females alternate.all o mine except the clone are not alternating the nodes. yes i looked and really didnt find anything on this subject. speedy Rating: 5
