About 5 months ago a friend gave me 6 plants that were supposed to be all female. I put them under 24 hours light and grew them to about 24" at which time I moved them to my flower area and cut the light to 12 hours. When they flowered, 5 of the 6 were male. To salvage what I could, I got rid of the males and took 6 cuttings for clones from the lone female.
I put the trimmed 'mother' back under 24 hour light and the clones in my incubator and when they rooted, I planted them and put them back with the mother. This is hydro BTW with a PH of 5.5 and nutes of approximately 700 PPM. Slowly the clones showed new growth so I put the mother back into the flower area to make a little more room for the cuttings.
Now here is the kicker that I have never seen before. The mother never did quit flowering and is budding nicely. The clones, howerer, are growing AND flowering at the same time! The clones are now about 10" tall and with each new set of leaves there is a new bud at the node. These are not pre-flowers as you can see them fattening up. This goes against everything that I know about the life cycle of a cannibis plant. Has anyone else ever encountered this?
