Hey guys I started 3 Bubblegum seeds about 4 days ago and they all look real good... except for one of them that looks kind of strange to me, I couldn't find any other threads on this and was wondering what people think.
Is there anything wrong here? or am i just trippin? how is this thing gonna look? (i'm talking about the sprout in the second pic)

i believe those anomalies are called triploidial? or polyploidial or something like that

Yeah im pretty sure its called something like that....its a very recessive gene that causes new growth the sprout 3 nodes instead of 2...some times it goes away after the first couple nodes and sometimes it doesnt.....im interested in comparing its yeild compared to the others...if its female that is

not quite a "recessive gene"

more like 3 sets of chromosomes instead of the more common 2 sets

thats why its an "anomaly"

hairy backs come from recessive genes

alright week 2 and they all look good. the sprout with 3 sets of chromosomes still continuing to have 3 sets of leaves per node

Yeah, I had two of my skunk kushes do this in my last grow. Sure enough they were the only 2 males. I would have really liked to see them flower. The only difference as far as yield is concerned is the triploid is going to be more bushy meaning you'll have more of a leaf to bud ratio which wouldn't make you produce as much....BUT if you do a shit load of LST with it you could bend it around to where it might possibly work out better for you. If you grow it regular though, I believe its about a 1/3 or 1/4 less than you would normally yield
