No idea the parentage its from unknown seeds ive been working with.These should all be female but have that intersex trait I was going to get my true females and use my feminizing spray to get true feminized seeds but not if I can work in this tri fol mutation

Yes this is showing traits of a polyploid plant i had, and it grew into a flat stem mutant ! not too rare but not too common

Itâs called a whorled phyllotaxy. I have a Locomotion cut with this trait at the moment. Usually it stays in the apical meristem but can sometimes show up in other branches on the plant from time to time.

Anyone know of a strain with the tri fol dominate trait or a pure tri foliated strain?? Would it even be worth the effort to try to keep this trait?

there was a thread, not sure how it ended. lots of times the plant grows out of it. would be interesting to isolate and stabilize that trait though.

The strain ended up not making it through the first round of selection.
Mr.nice seeds shit has been known to have these traits.
Trifoliate is to have three leaflets per leaf, this has three leaves per node. A trifoliate would be like the second set of true leaves or the new growth when you over prune an afghan. A whorled phyllotaxy is not entirely uncommon in cannabis as far as I can tell from my limited number of years growing.

Careful, really? With what? Like I said âusuallyâ. I have also had plants similar to the one posted above. Like I also said itâs not uncommon.

A meristem is not âbranches or leaf growthâ. It is a type of undifferentiated cell tissue, and is located at any place on a plant (roots and all) where growth can occur.
In my experience majority of trifoliates âfixâ themselves after a bit of growing, and they stop doing the trifoliate thing.
I wonder if one could somehow get it to be a staying trait. Because that would be like the Cannabis 2.0.

The apical meristem of any plant with a lead like a hemlock or cannabis is the top of the plant or dominant lead.
Apical Meristem is a very specific type of cellular tissue.
A region containing actively or potentially actively dividing cells, including initials and their immediate undifferentiated derivatives. Some consider a meristem to consist only of initials but the difficulty in recognizing a boundary between initials and their immediate derivatives has led many to consider the term in the broader sense including undifferentiated nondividing cells. Some meristems, such as axillary buds, are inactive for much of the time, their cells being potentially capable of active division (see apical dominance). Meristems may be *apical , axillary, *lateral , *marginal , or *intercalary.
To be certainâŚ

Cannabis is apical dominant, therefore the apical meristem is at the tip of the plant, apical = apex. I find it utterly amusing you are picking this apart and still using the term tri-foliate which is 100% wrong.

Hello @Hoodini and welcome to OG!
I joined these two threads so everyone can read up on the old info we had about whorled phillotaxy and also it compiles the info better for all the noobs to try and find it!
Hope itâs ok!

Doesnât sound genetic if this is the case
