This is my second grow attempt with these mystery seeds. (first-time grower). Had a ton of issues in the first round due to fungus gnats in the soil. I started from scratch 40 days ago with a bag of Pro Mix - Premium organic moisture mix and some brand new fabric pots. I only filled the pots halfway with soil, to begin with, but two days ago I pulled the plants out of the pots and filled in the extra. I started this grow off with only two of these Feit Electric 16W bulbs and picked up two more today. The plants are starting to get quite big for my growing space. I think I probably should have topped them sooner but I got cold feet after how badly the first run with these seeds went. Hard to take blades to a plant that's doing so well. I also only just started to do a bit of LST yesterday to try and even out the canopy. I have more work to do, ideally, I would like to have been able to use a trellis net. Maybe next time! I don't know too much about these seeds. I think they must be photoperiod and if I had to guess I think I would say these are Indica dominant. Two of the four seeds I planted came out a "bit" mutated. One more severely than the others as you can see in the pics. In the future, I would probably just pull that one out but since this is a first time grow for me I felt like keeping it to see how it developed, just out of curiosity. I've never seen a plant grow quite like this, with leaves curling up into spirals and looking so thin. Can't wait to see how the buds on this one develop (if it turns out to be female) I'm debating whether or not to do some defoliation on these suckers, just to get more light into some of the lower branches. Not much to do, but I think if I took out a few of the lower fan leaves it might help some of the lower branches develop better.

Despite a 24h light cycle, calyxes and pistils have started to grow! Does that prove these are autoflower, or could it be stress or some other factor?

The term is called Preflowering and at the 6th week of VEG. Seeing preflower is completely normal and not a sign that it is an Autoflowers at all.. Judging by the size , shape your plants are photo plants and you shouldn't be concerned at all.

Hey! I'm in the same boat! Gotta look at my current GD. I have my "Karen the Short bus" plant that's almost identical. I figured fuck it! Gonna let this crazy FUCKER grow. Get some mutant weed baby! Lol seriously check it out. Happy to find another because people think it's something I'M doing. Cock suckers been like this from germination. Curious as HELL.

@GutterHoe, Hell yeah! I'm going to be following your progress with it. My mutant actually just popped some pistils the other day. Will be in the next update.

The two plants look great.. My god what is wrong with that other one.. We'd just chuck it honestly it looks diseased or infected lol. It's not gonna produce for you at all. It's got very little canopy and it's still a thin spindly mess. That is one crazy looking Cannabis plant.

@Obsidianskies, Lol that one is definitely gonna be interesting to see. Like it doesn't even look like a Cannabis plant lol. Those leaves look they are in business for themselves and it doesn't have the structure. It's a little mind boggling... Lol seeing what happens is gonna be like watching a foot race with dudes who only have 1 leg. lol it's gonna be one hell of a show but definitely wont be breaking any records. Except maybe tallest sickliest looking plant that still somehow managed to produce "buds". At least there might be buds maybe I don't know.. Gonna follow along just to see what happens. Not in it for your healthy plants only watching the sickly one ha ha ha ha.

@DeadwebsiteBoringcommunity, I agree with you totally, in future grows I'd just chuck it. I let it grow because I'm really curious to see how it continues to develop, I'm surprised it's even survived this long tbh. Keeping it now just to see if it produces bud at all and what it might look like, spiral pistils? crazy Cthulhu buds? I'm in it for the mystery haha.

Fascinating really. That mutant is just doing some really weird things. It's trying to flower it looks like lol. But your other ladies are looking fantastic nice bud development and looking great. A word of caution with smells.... Ever walked into a house and noticed they owned cats because you smelled the litter box? Well people do get acclimatized and familiar with smells. A good way to tell if your op actually smells is to have a friend over who doesn't smoke a lot of Cannabis. If he can smell it so can the fuzz.

@DeadwebsiteBoringcommunity, That's some sage counsel about the smell... I'm fortunate enough to live somewhere where this whole op is legal so I don't have to worry about it from that angle, but I'd still rather not annoy the neighbors. I can't say there's *no* smell... I can smell it, especially in the morning when I first come into the room, but it doesn't smell like pot, it smells like flowers, like a generic bouquet of flowers, like the cheap kind you get at the grocery store. I'll definitely keep the mutant around until it has a chance to mature, it's been interesting to watch it develop so far.
