Fan leaves with flowering blooms. Strange or normal?

[HaySeed]

Hello all Y'all,
Perhaps this is normal, but I have never seen this before. My WW plant has been in bloom for about 10 weeks and while removing some dead leaves I noticed a small bloom and some very small leaves on one of the fan leaves. The bloom is small ( 1/2 inch) but it is there, right at the stem and the start of the leaf.

Also have some Bubbalicious blooming. Seems like my ladies are taking their sweet time getting ripe. Nice big flowers on my WW that are nowhere close to ripe, only a smattering of trics, the bubbalicious are closer to ripeness with lots of trics but blooms are half to a third of the WW.

Running 12/12 MH lamps, one 400 watt, two 100 watt and some supplementary CFLs. I switched out my 400 watt HPS lamp back to the MH after 8 weeks in the bloom phase. Maybe this is why there is a bloom on the fan leaf?

Ladies are in 5 gallon planters filled with perlite capped with 1/2'' reflective foam insulation board. Running constant drip with AN Lucas Formula with R.O. H2OOOH, TDS at about 950 to 1050 in a 10 gallon res. (TDS and pH are very stable, more so than my other grow failures)

Vegged 18/6 for 8 weeks before starting the 12/12. Ladies tripled in size after about 6 weeks in bloom.

Any thoughts fan leaves with blooms? I thought it a bit unusual myself.

Thanks for your feedback and happy growin'!

I've seen that a few times on my White Widows. I think it means their happy! :jointsmile:

Thanks DP.
This gal may be happy, but the other gals, not so much. Well, not as happy as this WW gal. I'm 99.99% certain over crowding is causing some unhappiness of the others except for one of the bubblicious.
Thanks again for your feedback. Pearls before swine? Could also be pearls before whine? I appreciate your "Pearl(s)" of wisdom in either case. I have learned lots of great stuff from this site and I still have lots more to learn, although a few posts (emphasis a few) I have read appears to be bogus and conjecture. Guess that is the same as any other forum topics on the WWW. It is what it is...
