My 3d has gone 3d

I have a third dimension that has three lateral branches at each node, I believe that's called a tripliod or polyploid?

I've read somewhere that more often or not and I don't know if it's true that they usually end up male. I'm planning on taking a couple clones anyways hoping it's a girl, but if it's a boy does just it being a triploid make it worthy of keeping around for any future breeding in case I want to try my hand at it?

It's in a 5gal smart pot 50/50 roots + supersoil.

Here is a couple pics, the first two are from about a week or so ago and the last two are from today.

I'm not sure if they tend to end up male or not but I'd just take soem clones anyway and then switch to 12/12 and let it show sex. If they are male then just deep six them all. =)

Also you don't need to change into flowering to determine sex. When grown from seed Pre flowers will form at about 4-6 weeks of vegetative growth as a sign of sexual maturity. I know its debateable as everything is but I brlieve (so do many others) that inducing flowering before sexual maturity will stress out a plant and you will not save anytime than if you waited for the first preflowers.

Obviously this isn't true with clones.

Also never heard that 3 lateral branches would mean male but it deffinately is a cool pheno. Keeping it if it is a male only depends on 1. If you can keep it without risking your other plants being pollinated and 2, how long till you might plan on breeding? If its not in the next 6 months you probably don't want to keep it that long. It will be huge

I guess if it does end up being a boy I have a t5 I can set up far away from my room and can let it do its business. I got the 'high probablilty' of it being male from some thread on here and of course now I can't find it, I'll go back through some of my google searches and see if I can dig it up.

If it ends up being a female, I would think the yeild could really be quite good. Please post an update when you switch to 12/12. This is very interesting. +rep

It looks super dank so far-great job. I have a bit of a mutant too. Its a Plushberry seedling with 3 cotyledons, but I don't know how out of the ordinary that is. TGA has some exciting strains.

Thanks SupaM, she's already finger sticky and super stinky in good way. Not the biggest yielder but I'm going to have but some dank for sure.
