Hi SLOW... GREAT OBSERVATION!!!

When a plant is YOUNG... it has symetrical nodes....

As a plant matures (3-6 weeks) it starts to have ALTERNATING NODES....

you made a very good observation!!!

Many growers believe that you can not FLOWER a plant until the plant (reaches maturity) has ALTERNATING NODES... this is not true.... you can flower a plant any time YOU want...


There are also NODES called SECONDARY NODES (or secondary growth)... these are nodes on branches that come off the MAIN branch/stalk.... secondary growth starts with symetrical nodes and then eventually has alternating nodes TOO..

and NOW you KNOWM
Garden Knowm Reviewed by Garden Knowm on . queer plants!!! All the pics I see have one branch on one side then another branch a little further up on the opposite side. I am growing Nirvana's Chrystal and I have branches on both sides but at the same node. Did that make sense? Is this normal for some strains? Rating: 5
