I've had those plenty of times and you'd think they should yield 50% more but they don't. I've had a couple with 4 and should have got double but I didn't. 
lol
Once the reach sexual maturity and the nodes alternate you can't really tell them from their normal cousins.

Lol ok thanks and i am more concerned with keeping her alive i was just curious. Yea i would've imagined there would be more yield with an extra leaf but then again i dont get paid to think.

For this particular case the defect in the dna as it split happened as the seed was formed. This caused an extra leaf and node but the dna did not mutate so normally they revert back to normal growth at some point.
A similar thing can be seen with whorlled phylotaxy plants but that is a loss in apical dominance and not your problem here.
I heard the word 'Triplod' mentioned before, shame on you as this is nothing to do with three leaved plants but a genetic disposition. Probably meant trifolate which could be a better description.
Mainly i see trifolates from less than good seed, by this i dont mean genetics but the bad environment or grow tent they were made in, too hot, too windy etc big ass lights etc etc.
Beware all the crap written about this condition on the tinternet, most is un-scientific brogrow bs....

I'm just finishing one now that actually seemed to start throwing three leaves halfway through flower and nope no more no less compared to the other girls. Actually maybe a bit less.

do you mean three fingered leaves? This guy has a different thing going here. I had an Akorn that would start three fingers in flower, five on the bottom. That trait only showed on Akorn and her offspring everything else in the tent is the usual.

No three sets of leaves at each node and three bud sights, I'll try and find a pic.

I never got to see what gender my Triple-leafer was. I'd woken up late one overly warm morning. I'd rushed to get ready for work. And forgot to bring my few weeks old plant inside. Later that day I found out it was going to be a shitful 46°c. By that point it was already 34°c. I got home after work. Despite having the shade. She still cooked. Was the first plant that I grew healthy colored all the way. Up until it died that is.

Your yield will mostly be based on canopy footprint area, height, and total power of light. (assuming you fill an even canopy)

His his yield is 0 lol

If its whorlled phylotaxy then yeilds are crap unless you like stem and leaf lots in your bud. Satived did some of these grows for a good read but i disagree on his breeding etc etc.
A defect in the dna as it split and replicated often caused by stress. The dna still stays the same just the stress causes irregularities not mutations.
A long standing subject here...

Yes I remember reading it actually and I wasn't expecting much but just had a look and it's holding its own lol. The leaf to bud is not bad actually compared to the other ones but lots happened to the run of which I'm baffled, two of the girls went into what looks like reveg halfway through 12/12, actually 11/13, as well

I tend to agree with the stress as mine started to do this two weeks after switch. Not sure what I did though lol. Could have been a number of things .... never had one before that I can remember which is about a week ago lol

To me its just a slight issue when the dna divides, stress and things are triggers to this. The dna does not mutate it just produces errors, when the stress goes normal growth is resumed.
I get trifolate seedlings from seeds produced in stressfull conditions a lot, hopefully this knowledge will help others see whats really going on rather than thinking of mutations or a third bigger yeild (which dosent happen).
I disagreed with some over it but can produce a working conclusion and answers to each question on the subject, dissapoints me that much of the info people write is more towards dna mutations and double yeilds. What most think happens would lead to us all ditching our regular plants for tris but as its pretty much bs no one has ever managed to produce breedable genetics in all the years ive been here and thusforth i can call bs on their thoughts all too easily.
You know this thread ive posted before with my whorlled plants and three leaves in early flower from years ago.....

Thanks for the info.. I dont know thats why i asked. It did sprout in a pretty stressful situation and once i fixed it, it resumed growth so thats probably what it is. She seems pretty happy now. Also id like to ask about lighting. Ive been keeping her in the sun as much as weather allows but at night ive been keeping her under a 100w LED with about 2000 lumens. Is that ok? Or should i leave it in one or the other? (Sun or LED)
