my new plant has three cotyledons n three leaves

is that good or not?ive been doin some readin but everone says something diff. bout em?!?!most of em are males,the females tend to have higher yields,etc,etc.....does any experienced grower have the so called closest to truth answer?

ive had and currently have some strange number leaves 2,3,4, in the weirdest shapes, but check any of my sig links and all so far(with crazy fingers) have and so far are turing out great

hes talkin bout somethin different nor. not the amount of blades per leaf but how many branches per node.

i think its called a triploid. they are pretty commmon. ive had a bunch and one purple kush strain i had ....almost every seed was a triploid. it was so weird.

I am three weeks into flowering on my wonder woman, and the triploid i had, is over six feet tall, double in size than the others

they often snap out of it and start growing normal growth patterns. i think i have only had two, one ww and one purple kush that have stayed triploid the whole grow.
 
thats what i figured bout more bud sites also but it still has to be a female too plus i just found out that my newest plant i put in flowering is a hermie....i saw female preflowers 3 days ago today i saw little round bulbs that did not resemble the other preflowers at all...

Whorled phyllotaxy means thre branches at every node, dose not mean extra yeild though just the same as a normal plant except the buds are split over a large area. Not genetic but just a plant exspression, yours is a triploid meaning three leaves and quite often this will grow out, triploids do not generally stay triploids for long, i have a few whorled phyllotaxy plants at the moment and believe me i was gutted they didnt produce a third more. Triploids are genetic variants i believe but the genetics stabalise back to a diploid or two leaves per node.

I believe some master kushes are triploids but cant remember totally. Good luck dude it will be allright, just somthing that happens now and again. Peace

they dont always go to two leaves. ive had some stay at triploid the whole grow.

Very rare to get a triploid finish as a triploid, probably more the whorled phyllotaxy but it dont matter, very few yeild extra. Peace

a white widow from dinafem. i cloned her a few generations and every time stayed triploid. i cant attest to yield gain but my guess is that it didnt gain any yield due to the extra branch per node. the buds were always small.

Yep, very rare to get one yeild more, think about 20percent have the ability to but i never seen it, if you top you get more budsites but not necessarially more weed. Looks cool though, i have a few whorled phyllotaxy weed plants and yeild looks less than a normal plant, but like i said it looks cool. Peace

What of the master kush, i have heard this is a triploid but could be wrong, anyone know about this particular strain? Peace
