Theres a few strains out there that just grow like that, nothing to worry about
Thank you

if you say it have 3 leafs then it might be the Australian stealth plant "duckfoot"

Not what the OP has posted but yeah, good old wally duck. He sent me some beans from Australia back in the day off overgrow. Never got around to growing them out. Also got some from bushy old grower, bog bubble and stuff that he was running back then. I gave those to a buddy and he grew them, some tasty smoke.

Three cotyledons and first leaves is generally a result of when the seed formed, stress, mitosis errors etc etc.
Ploidy is something else easily explained on wiki and its not present in all plants probably not mj too.
Whorlled phylotaxy describes a loss of apical dominance - that can cause tri nodes and more nodes but again a stress reaction imo. Not something that produces tri leafed seedlings but probably linked.
Three leafed can be termed trifoliate but like whorlled phylotaxy is merely a description of leaf arangement.
None of this is breedable or we could simply buy the strains and would be common knowledge here and thus so is also transient in the fact three leafed and whorlled plants can revert back to normal growth - genetically they only know normal growth why they revert and henerally when stress subsides.
Ive seen peeps produce grows of ducks foot where the trait hardly showed up and others report a greater trait under stress - the plant can naturally do this and many see the odd webbed leaf on seedlings - far as science and mj says its more a feature of transpiration where by a fatter leaf has a larger boudary layer - ive also heard ducks foot was breed from generations of stressed plants, sounds like how autos came about... distinguish between environmental pressures pushing diversity and straight out mutants either deficient in proteins or with extra ones idk its hard to define a mutation from natural growth in a way.
Ramblings but take what you will

That’s a lot to take in but it’s funny it was the only one in the stain that came out like that seems cool to meThree cotyledons and first leaves is generally a result of when the seed formed, stress, mitosis errors etc etc.

Sorry it is a lot but we have suffered far too many trolls here recently who believe mj mutates regular and boveda is needed to cure etc etc - Better eager minds get the full picture rather than think they have the next xool mutant strain

I have 3 plants growing 12/12 from seed right now. One is alternating between 2 leaves at a node and 3.Three cotyledons and first leaves is generally a result of when the seed formed, stress, mitosis errors etc etc.

By your logic my plant is stressed when one node starts and then not stressed when the next one does, then back to stressed.
My other two are right beside her, same conditions, two leaves per node.
I'm pretty sure it's a genetic fuckup, as one of the plants is from the same "strain" (accidental outdoor pollination), and looks like the pot version of the elephant man. The third plant is a different "strain" (accidental pollination of my next door neighbour's plant by my other next door neighbour's male).
I won't be able to say for sure if it's genetics until I grow a few more of this "strain", but when a plant is otherwise healthy and shows no signs of stress, it's probably genetics.
