Whorled Phytolaxy......What?

[guest2012y]

I have one of these coming up. Never had one before,does anyone know if they are worth keeping or if they produce better...worse?

Apparently it's a mutation where the arrangement of the leaves on the stem have 3 nodes instead of two. Kinda' cool,but......WTF? Don't have my camera @ the moment,will get pic here soonish.

They are great, keep it! They fill the space allowed to them much more evenly with less work.

Cool,that's what I wanted to hear! I'll keep tabs on it,male or female I'll keep the genetics,(assuming this mutation is passed on via breeding?) If not clones 4 sure. We'll see what happens. Thanks

You have 3 cotyledon leaves on that?

Tricotyledon. Crap, imo.

Yes and what's the bad?

ime
plants that start off with 3 nodes per section 8 out of 10 are male
the 1s that remain female have lost the 3rd node once into flower
just wat ive noticed growing over the years
all the best
ken

It is true that most trifoliar plants are male, but not all. I have a strain that puts out quite a high percentage of trifoliar ladies. A recent seedbatch had 14 out of 48. An interesting side note is that some don't even start out with a triple cotyledon seeds, but actually begin even triple tiers after some normal tiers! The expectation of trifoliar plants is always that the extra budsite would increase yield by 50%, but this seems not to be true. In fact, this particular strain seems to favor slightly smaller buds on any trifo plant.

So from what I've been looking at,and hearing from you guys here,is they are unpredictable. I can only wait to see what it does. Could be worthless,could be a bigger yielder. I'm curious to see so I'll finish it out and post some pics from different stages so you guys can trip on it.

My reply was a bit short and not so sweet. Had plenty over the years, never amount to much, never smoke up great, worth trying, I enjoyed growing them as they're different, but the results were crap.

Strange this is my first,I've planted thousands of seeds.....weird.

Just had one.....again......male.

No cap'n it's not wierd, it's just different gene pools. I got 3 triploid out of ten one time, if that helps make it wierder.

Maybe "freaks" is the word.....really though,seems to be a lot of that around now,never saw it before.

 

[guest2012y]

Okay....got a six pack,came home,worked in the room,TRIPPED and fell on the GAWG damned WORLED PHLYLAXY and snapped it clean off like a piece of dry bamboo......So much for that trip.

 

[Speedcat]

lmfao at that statement sorry man. I remember when I was younger how much effort I put into hiding and growing this one fucking plant(jamacian sativa from OG member, i was like 15yrs old) in my bedroom. i got it to 2 1/2 feet tall and broke the mainstem in half trying to LST it. I wanted to cry lol.

 

[guest2012y]

@ least I got my BMR's ...and those last 4 PPP's still grabbing light....The whorled one was a PPP...BMR's can't die.

 

[GeorgeSmiley]

Here's the PPP triploid female (came from OP captcheeze1)

 

[GeorgeSmiley]

So I read that it isn't considered a triploid just trifoliate.... it would have to be tested for the 3rd chromosome to be triploid correct?

Wow!!!
I just checked all 3 PPP females.
Not one that looks like that.
If it is off PPP #1 I'll get a look at her in flower tonight.
Sometimes it's limited to a branch and not the rest of the plant.
Could be cool....take some cuts offf her and flower it out. Might build bigger buds???????

 

[GeorgeSmiley]

It is P1

Yeah so far every node has 3 branches, leaves etc your mom of this HAS to have the same thing right?

Smiley

PS. sorry they look bad right now, it's just they were sorta forgotten about in the furnace room and it was a little to hot then I burned them by overwatering......

Fucking bubble hash
