Two plants from one seed?

I started a SH bubbleponics grow and 5 of the 6 sprouted and are about a week old now. All four corners are white widow and the one in the center is some nice bag seed. One of the white widows is growing a second little plant though. How did this happen?

i don't know but that's pretty cool! you should let that puppy grow and keep us informed and see what happens! just a suggestion?

One of my string bean plants did that the other day. What I think happened is when the seedling started to sprout through out the rock wool the stem broke and a new root system started which created a new plant.

Thats not a new plant really, it happens rarely with MJ but it does happen in that a root can form a second plant, linked to the origanal but with a new stem. It can actually be a very bad thing in that it leaches the strength of the origanal plant and stunts it's growth. Clip it!

I have three plants starting to do this, in fact one plant has two shoots growing from the main plant. From the prev post, I should kill them ASAP.

I planted one seed as a start to my growing career just to see how it goes....and after my plant was about 6 inches tall it sprouted another plant strait from the roots...so i waited a few days and decided to transplant the taller plant into the bigger pot....boy was i surprised to see that the second plant wasnt even connected to the larger, i dont know how this happened but i think it may have something to do with when i accidently knocked over the pot a while back perhaps causing a root cluster to break off and sprout another plant?...but anyways so i transplanted the bigger one and im elaving the smaller second sprout in the small pot to see if it grows good...if not ill trash it but at the moment thy both seem to be doing great...so i dont know maybe try this but it is kind of dangerous

this has happened to me lol im just gonay run with it sea what happens

it seems to me when this happens its kind of like a woman having twins. 2 eggs in one seed.

Digging up a dead thread, but I was wondering is it possible if that my 2nd stem is about 1" away from the main stem that they now two completely separate plants? and so I can then take out the bigger one when ready, and move the smaller one somewhere else till it's ready to be re-potted?
