Has anyone ever seen 2 stems grow from 1 seed? (HELP)

ginnithead · Jan 7, 2013

hi guys.. I bought some Jack Herer auto flowering seeds and i've germinated and planted one of the seeds abut 3 days ago. But it sprouted up above ground today and it looks to have 2 stems with a leaf on the end of each. I was just wondering has this ever happened to anybody else and what should i do as i am a first time grower and all advice is welcome. I will try to upload pics in the next few days.

I've had it happen too me. Twins! Not a big deal if your taking clones.
if you plan on flowering the seed Id personally cut if off haha

how do i know which one to cut off? and when? also how would i go about cloning it as i said im a first timer haha

there's a pretty current grow journal on here that dude got twins from a seed,, i'll try and find a link for it..

also, my friend doobieus got twins on one of her grows on here a few years ago.. the one was weaker and ended up dying on her, but i have seen a few twins make it to harvest..

I would leave it if i were you...the more growth points, the more bud later

if i was to keep it as twins would i be best off buying a bigger watt light, i have a 125 cfl with purple tinge. and what about re potting it into bigger pot. or would i be better off cloning it? thanks for advice..

Veg it out a little bit and see which one is stronger.
Cloning is a pretty lengthy process and I don't feel like going into full detail about it.
i will say this though, you cut the branch off put it into rock wool or similar item and wait til it roots.
theres plenty of forums about it already with information more understandable then I could make it.
just type on cloning techniques.
hope this helped!

I would really recommend upping the light if you plan on flowering.
some people like seeds some people like clones it's up too you.

Now why the hell would he want to know how to clone an autoflowering plant? Sure you can clone an auto, but each clone will start flowering once the root system is semi-grown in. meaning you will get 2-4grams per clone you took, meaning it is utterly pointless to clone an auto.

oh ok cheers lads

Don't ask me. He asked and I gave advice.
i have no experience with auto flower seeds.
no need to be a dick yah know

Like i said just leave it be bro...to ensure both might survive i would say more light and you shouldn't need more than a 3 gallon pot for an auto

Friedrice you should learn this sooner rather than later...if you don't have a clue on the subject please don't answer the question, but welcome to RIU

lol, just because i have a minimal amount of posts does not mean im completely uneducated.
He was asking for experience with twin seeds.
Not so much auto help.

Clonex · Jan 7, 2013

Posts have nothing to do with your experience or rep....your method would of worked for anything but an auto not saying you are unexperienced...but he is doing an auto, so it should be left alone
