Kind of a cool mutation, it’s not entirely desirable, it uses up a lot of extra energy and can make it a really dense branch with airflow and other issues.
Bonus, here it is cannabis, it changes the branch structure to no longer be uniform/ symmetrical and has random branching now.
Starting to flower
Full on flower
Any idea what causes it? Or is it strictly genetic?
My understanding is it can be genetic, it can also be from stress and from environmental factors as well.
For my cannabis it was probably weaker genetics that I set off with stress, I didn’t have much luck with the mix pack, they came in baggies, so assuming white label seeds. The other mix pack I got from the same place is branded RQS and they’ve been fantastic, the risk of not buying specific breeders sometimes. Learning haha.
No day is a waste in which you learn something.
True in life, doubly so in gardening.
