No it will not lose a set of chromosomes. Polyploid plants grow and kinda look retarded. They have big everything and will twist and kinda look irregular. Its alot like down syndrome in humans. Well thats probably what happened. If not, then i don't know. There isn't much study on polyploidy in cannabis. I have a triploid in my first 10 of the year. I wonder, if you've done breeding. If you have lets talk. [email protected]
Earthy Dank Reviewed by Earthy Dank on . Very Advanced Question-polyploidy I am into the third generation of a very potent polyploid indica strain. During the first transplant stage, the plants were infested with fungas gnats and green alge. The leaves twisted and became leathery and did not look at all like cannabis. Well I saved them and they are growing fine, but seem to lack the early trichome developement that the first two generations had. Question. Is it possible for a polyploid plant to lose the multiple chromosome sets and revert back to it's diploid Rating: 5
