3 fan leaves per node? wtf?

now i remember why i stopped topping my outdoor plants. they split like that A LOT. sounds like yours is gonna pull thru though.

she seems to have recovered now, its over 8ft tall now and looks pretty good. It broke off a couple branches when it split and fell, but other than that it seems healthy again. I wish all my plants grew like this one, its much taller than any of the others i started at the same time and has been that way since it popped out of the soil. Its kinda lanky but should still yield a lot. Ill take some more picts soon.

I have a plant 7 weeks into flowering and it started out with "trifoliate" traits about 4 or 5 weeks into veg and after another week or 2 it started "quadrofoliate" traits. The plant now has 2 main colas, though it was never topped. It also has 4 big buds growing out of the same part of the plant on about the middle 8 inches(12 buds coming out of what would originally be 6 buds). Some of the side branches also have double heads...i think it is a genetic thing because i have 3 other plants of the same genetics and 2 of the other three have at least one double headed side shoot. None of them were ever topped

I went to check the tri-fan and i think its a hermie. the bottom four branches (the ones below where it was topped) are showing male for sure. Not sure what to do now. Should i just cut off those four branches? these branches are about the thickness of my ring finger so i would assume that cutting off four of those would harm it pretty bad. I need some advice quick, i hadn't checked this thing in a while and those four branches are getting far along. i need to do something before it pollinates the few others i have around it. thanks in advance

i forgot to mention it shouldnt have shown sex for a few more weeks and none of the rest of mine in that area are yet. The two main branches going up from where it was topped still arent showing sex either. come on guys i need some help

well i didnt get any responses so i just cut off those four branches and i guess i'll just wait to see if the whole things male or not.

if it is male on one branch, it is male on the whole plant.

What makes you think it's a hermie? Didn't you say that you've seen no other signs of sex other than the male pollen sacs? Unless you want to ruin your other plants, I'd chop it down, dude. I know it hurts to do that, but think of your other LADIES.

ya i chopped it already, now what to do with the leaves????.....
