Skipping 3 bladed leaves?

First time I've ever seen this. I have a little Blue Widow cross seedling I'm growing to practice LST on (I keep breaking them, lol) and her second set of true leaves have 5 leaflets. She skipped the 3 leaflet stage.

I wasn't really planning on getting much if anything from this plant, but now I want to see how she grows. I have her in Promix flowering plant blend (which should be way too hot to grow in) and under a 45w LED (yes that's from the wall). I sold my indoor equipment a couple of years ago, and I'm not going to go get new stuff just for this, but I'm curious how she'll turn out.

How many of you have had this?

Thanks. It's just weird that it's happening on a plant I'm kinda mistreating. Hot soil, weak light, though it is really close.
All the plants I've grown up till now have done the usual 1,3,5, etc.

It doesn't look mistreated and has grown big first leaves possibly low light allowed it to grow bigger initially.

Soil doesn't look hot or there is no sign of excess nutrients.
