Did this seedling auto-top Itself?

Hi All, great to be a part of this community!
I have a 2 X 4 X 5 tent, sunraise 1000W equiv. Plants are just over 2 weeks old after germination. On a 18 - 6 light schedule. One of the 3 seedlings looks like it has topped itself.
It otherwise looks healthy. Anyone seen this and or brought one to flower?
Any info would be appreciated.

Thanks to All!

No lol it's not topped. those 2 shoots are just rrgular growth if it was topped. the very top of the plant (new growth) would have 2 not just 1.

It is a weird seedling. It has cotyledons, fan leaves and two growing shoots all from one node? Never seen that before. What strain is it?

Did you notice the two new shoots growing from that single node? Also the two shoots are growing while the top "single finger" set is not...

Um... those are just normal side branches... I would let it grow up to one more node then top it so those side branches will catch up with the top ones and you will get a nice even cross shapes plant then I would LST so tie the branches down so they all get good light, to control size,keep the canopy even and get a bigger yield then I would top each branch one more time to get 8 main tops I usually do 8 to 16 at the most main tops

It has cotyledons, fan leaves and two growing shoots all from one node which I'm pretty sure is not normal. Planning on LST for sure as well as topping it twice for eight colas. BTW there are no more nodes being produced on the main stem.

It has lost its growth tip and triggered growth at the lower nodes - it happens but is nothing :-)
