Hey everyone- I sprouted five of my mk/skunk seeds and to my surprise, one of the seeds had two tails coming out of it. It now is growing two separate plants out of the one seed.
Has anyone esle every seen this??
I've been gardening since like 1986 and have never seen this B4.
I've got some pics of each growth stage I'll try to get up this weedend with an update. Let me know if anyone has heard of this B4???

wow, thats cool, a freak! I wonder if it will be a recessive gene. Two for the price of one!

i eventually cut down one of them and let the other grow... it ended up being a male tho....

yeah one is def. a runt, but I'm going to try and let both go. Their about two inches tall now. I got pics but need my girlfriend to convert the files as I'm a novice at all that.

I had the same thing happen with my Mango X Widow. I had 1 seed sprout 2 plants. 1 was alot stronger and before I could clone the smaller it died. The one left is a girl tho...

I always hear about this with MNS strains, but have never experienced it myself. I would seperate if possible and grow each on in its own pot/rr/ect.

Here's a picture of the twins. I hope its clear enough to see.

You can see the double one a little smaller in the plug closest to the screen. The twin is about half the height of the other.

Dont kill 1 of them - separate them and be happy with 1 more chance of a real keeper

I had this more than often with my ssH f2´s made from shanti´s stock

but its nothing to worry about - this phenomenon comes time to time

i concur, try very gently to seperate them-it will be easier when theyre small and dont have a lot of roots tangling together.

I once had what I'd describe as a seed which was more like a siamese twin, heart shaped I wish I had kept it or at least taken a photo of it, but I germinated it instead and they didnt survive...

Good luck with yours mark, but from what I've read of these oddball freaks of nature here and elsewhere, chances are you'll have at least one die and the other go male or die. keep us posted though
