What were your storage methods for these 20 years ?
these seeds were sealed in a plastic vacuum pack then left in a box - most dried out, so this is one of the lone survivors

Your camera works to good. Lol it is crazy. IDK. The one almost looks like it’s really wanting to bud up. I have always wanted to grow upside down.

My Blue Tara seedlings are being weird, which makes me hope they’re Blue Moonshine leaners. One is staying tiny but healthy and only in the last few days stuck its neck up at all with some stem. Another is showing whorled phyllotaxy, which is a first for me, and the third is completely normal looking. Should be interesting to see how they mature! This is a line I might F2 in the future and keep looking into, I’ve got an interest in all of the parents, and just recently scored a few of the Snow Lotus BX F2 from the run here a while ago, so the option of backcrossing BT or other Snow Lotus hybrids is a possibility now.
@Oldjoints @JohnnyPotseed any of you guys experience either the health dwarf/runt or whorling in the BT line? How did those turn out? I am trying to rethink my attitude towards culling to allow the strange but healthy plants their space to grow too after getting some really dwarfy squat plants that ended up being super dank, if low yielding.

this one is as beatiful as it is ugly if you get me right lol
If I remember correctly I did have a runt that never responded to nutrients and never resumed normal growth. After a month I culled the plant.

Those are galls. They are caused by bacteria, insects, or other organisms which produce chemicals that alter plant growth to create a habitat for themselves.
from the web:
Galls are caused by a variety of parasitic organisms, which can range from bacteria and fungi to insects and mites. They look as if they are grown from the plant itself and are often structures with an extremely high level of organisation.
in ornamental gardening, if galls appear on a tree or bush it usually requires no treatment, other than pruning if desired.
But for indoor cannabis growing, we really don’t want any unknown variables and risks introduced into our grows.
My advice- do not keep clones of that plant, and after it finishes flowering, remove all biological material of that plant from your grow space.

Totally agree, all the plants that are far away from being okay should be removed

Thanks for your insights, that plant (Purple Malawi) was harvested months ago, a pleasant smoke 
, only happened in that node and never thought about it as something critical to cull the plant, next time I will keep an eye on it …

I wouldn’t necessarily cull it.
I would kill it and remove it if I was running an important breeding project, or other important batch of flowering plants, and didn’t want any unforeseen risks that could impact the health or harvest of other plants in my grow.
If I was just flowering it sinsemilla, I would let it finish. But then I would make sure to remove all dropped leaves and other material from that plant from the grow environment, and probably clean my tent. I would not re-use the soil from a cannabis plant that had galls on it.
Sometimes galls can be a bacterial or fungal problem, or they can contain insect larva.

Is this thread only canna-specific? Because I have a philodendron (i.e Philodendron ‘birkin’) that’s been weird for years.
Only throws albino white leaves… that die because (i assume) can’t Photosynthesize.
Been going on for 1+ yrs and any plantlets/clones I’ve taken from it do the same thing, eventually. Every brown callus is a failed set of leaves. I like how thick this ”mutation” or whatever you call it makes the stem but at what cost 
Here’s it’s current set of albino leaves. M
Currently it’s newest plantlet looks happy. But I kinda want the whole fucking thing to look like this. WTF is wrong with mine
