OG Vader with about 3 weeks to finish
Amazing photos toasty. Your grow looks super healthy and happy, nice buds.
Sexy girls UBC!
From Orion are they…

That’s a pretty girl! Have you had it a long time? It’s one I haven’t tried yet but going to get somehow. I love stuff from prof. I got a few seeds of a nice one of his and a couple more. Crap, most of his work is nice. That plant looks just right. It reminds me of a Chucky’s Bride I grew. peace
Three branches at each node is called Whorled Phyllotaxy, it’s a cannabis anomaly that usually reverts back to the normal two branches at each node.
I’ve grown a lot of whorled phyllotaxy cannabis plants over the years, but only a few have made it all the way through flowering.
Congrats on yours… you’ll be enjoying 1/3 more bud after harvest.
I was gonna add that cloning keeps the anomaly, however, breeding with it does not carry over to the offspring… it’s not a dominant trait, it’s an anomaly.
I’ve got a couple seed lines that exhibit the trait fairly frequently, due to both parents carrying the trait.
They weren’t selected for that, it just turned out that way. I don’t see any particular benefit to overall. In some strains that form large dense colas with little side branching, it could even make it more difficult to prevent bud rot if the plant hasn’t reached the stage of developing alternating nodes before flowering.
I have a small Black Lime Reserve f4 going and the seed root did a full loop and then started growing to the side a little The first node is tri-stemmed but he next node goes back to symmetrical, 2 fans over and perpendicular to the two fans below.
Wish my camera wasn’t broke. I’m going to clone all three of that first node so the plant will stretch up a little. They’re right down on the dirt almost. It’ll work out. I want clones of it, and I want to get air and space in there. A clone will grow straight up if I keep an eye on it and maybe I’ll flower them and keep this weirdo for clones.
The majority of the time, the whorled phyllotaxy plants will be males, females with this genetic mutation are harder to come by.
Couple shots after lights out of 50’s Orange Goji. Here is one girl except for the bottom corners of the ones next to her.
And her is the one next to her coming down tomorrow.
Here is a little closer shot of a few tops on the first one.
Freaken A1 Bro!!
Those are lethal weapons. You have done right by them!
Well done!
Cheers

Thanks man. It’s tough when I have different strains in there at all stages of flower all being fed by the same barrel. Some hurt more than others but the OG seems to be doing good for the most part.
Those are gorgeous!
How many times do you top them. It’s a beauty!
I do a manifold type of thing by topping and leaving node 3 & 5 and bending them out. Then if the top branches spirt up too much top them again or all if I need to keep em low. I have a height restriction so need to keep everything in the 5-6’ of height I have.
Beautiful!
It’s showing nice results. I need to get back into training plants for yield. I’ve been enjoying watching them grow naturally other than defoliating. I top once on occasion. I used to do heavy topping a long time ago. I pinched all limbs a couple of times.
Ya I tend to leave the outdoor ones the way they are and watch what they do but inside I try to maximize my space as much as possible. Lots of fans and air movement and so far no PM. Only problem is I don’t get to see the ones in the corner until I chop them as there is no space to get inside at all. I cut in 3 doors in a 4x8 which kinda gives me access to most of them.
