Unfortunately my life got in the way and they went unwatered until death.
I once had what I thought was a polyploid(triploid) but according to a certain stinky attic it was actually a "whorled phytaxy". This was the most interesting plant I had ever grown. I started out about 33% bigger and actually seemed to grow 33% which made sense because 33% more leaves=33% more photosynthesis. The picture of the first three leaves was taking in mid-feburary and the final 2 pictures were takin on 5/25 and you can see it was already 6 foot tall. It got so tall so fast that I had to lay it down. Unfortuatly it was found by my dad and was killed. I can only imagine the yeild if that were to keep growing vegetative for another 2 months and then another 2 months of flowering... But I still kinnda think it was a triploid(had 3-sets of chromosomes as opposed to 2 (diploid)). Hopefully stinkattic will clarify why it is NOT a polyploid issue.
Earthy Dank Reviewed by Earthy Dank on . Interesting little oddity This little lady has had an interesting life so far...she's been all screwed up looking since she popped out of her shell lol. I had no clue what the deal was when the first set of leaves came out looking all wrinkled and weird, then the second set looked the same. Now up to the 5th node, its pre-topped lol no pruning required, it just grew that way..strangest thing I ever did see... The first 4 show the seedling oddity, with the last showing the whole batch Rating: 5
