Hello fellow growers!
I grow MJ plants as a fun and fascinating hobby with very nice benefits.
I made a few small grow cabinets and only grow a few plants at a time.
I have read a lot and researched a lot (the forums here are the best in the world) so I am knowledgeable but not very experienced, having grown only a handful of plants so far.
I am growing three plants at the moment, and two of them are the strangest seedlings I have ever seen.
So I thought I would show them to you and get your opinions and comments on them.
The strain is called Wild West sativa, I purchased 10 seeds in 2007 from Vancouver Seed Bank (a big thumbs up recommendation for them, only one seed failed to germinate out of nine used so far, and that seed was five years old).
OK, here is a picture of "Becky", 3 weeks old, grown from one of the original Wild West seeds, and looking very normal.
Just showing it for comparison purposes.
Now, here is a picture of "Allie", 4 weeks old, also grown from one of the original Wild West seeds.
The leaves are very small, very ridged and curly, and all are covered in large trichomes!
Huh ?
Either a different strain of seed was put in the order, or something else is happening ?
I have never seen a picture of a seedling like this anywhere.
Any ideas ?
My third baby requires a little background info.
I grew a female Wild West plant in 2009, there were a few male bananas on it early in the flowering, probably due to a little stress, but i ignored them, and the plant turned out fantastic.
It did however produce a handful of seeds, so apparently it self-pollenated itself.
So this year I thought I would try these seeds and see what happens.
Well, out of all these small hermie seeds, only one made it to the growing stage.
So here is a picture of "Daisy", at 4 weeks old.
It started growing shoots everywhere in every direction, and looks more like a bush than a plant!
Huh ?
I also noticed there is no sign of any trichomes on any of the leaves, but I don't know how relevant that is at this stage.
A pot plant that thinks it's a shrubbery LOL?
Any ideas ?
Thanks in advance for your comments, the knowledge you share is so very much appreciated.
Wishing good growing to all!
