Twins?

[mushaboom]

Am i imagining this or are these twins? I know for a fact that there was only one seed put in the rapid rooter because i only had 4 seeds and the other 3 already sprouted. Im pretty sure there are two tap roots popping out here. isnt it weird? has anyone seen this before?

Yup!
I've seen them in a couple lines- Akita and Nirvana's NL have produced twins in my garden in the past.
If you want to keep them healthy, when it is time to transplant for the first time, set them in the new pot buried up to the cotyledons and spread as far apart as possible.

wow i never even thought about the possibility of having twins from a seed, and moreover i cant believe you have experience with this too. stinky you have experience with most everything! i guess it maybe makes up for me accidentally squashing one seedling. by the way if anyone likes to know the twins came from a batch of mandala #1 special editions.

It's happened to me also.

Wow, how weird is that? Does each seedling have a pair of cotyledons, or is it just one leaf per stem? Kinda hard to tell by looking at the picture.

hey heres a new picture, they seem to be growing normally individually. they both have all the parts a plant needs too not half. for people that this has happened to, did you grow yours from seed to harvest and how did that go?
