@DaSofaSurfer, Hi man, thanks for the reply, really great to see your thoughts and wish you best of luck with the contest. Amsterdam is a really really wonderful city and I hope you will have the chance to visit! The strategy with covering the stronger one to permit the weaker one to recover is clearly the way to go, cool idea, I have seen it in other plant growing techniques, not in cannabis, but...makes sense and it will be interesting to watch how it turns out. But I wouldn't get too stress either, even if you'd leave it eventually it will pick up and develop well, depending on how long you plan on vegetating. I had in the past few "mutants" with 2 or 3 heads naturally, helps with the manifolding design after, of course 😄 I usually do feminized seeds, the autos that I have are purely for time keeping and usually I don't do much to them, minor defoliation and LSTs. Their life cycle from seed to harvest of ruderalis is around 3 months +/-, also this 3 months is my vegetative period for the feminized ones, so once the autos are done, light goes 12/12 and the feminized go flowering. (I am also restricted by space and have to make the most of my setup) Greenhouse Seed Company are really great, highly reputable. Never grew any of their flowers (yet) I usually do Dutch Passion seeds and always looking for new colorful strains. Have my eye on some red ones from SweetSeeds 😆 I do some macro photography, that's the main reason I like this flower, go check it out on instagram @@occultgreen420 Grower's love & good vibes!🙏

@@occultgreen420, thanks for taking the time and for your well wishes my grow bro. Unfortunately I'm not a breeder. The space I have in my pad that can be dedicated to grow life is very small. I live in an expensive city with high rents. I can only afford a very tiny space. Believe me when I tell u sacrifices where made just so I could have a 3x3 foot area dedicated to my passion of growing this beautiful plant. Yeah I've has plenty of mutants along the years. Mostly "tripods" tho. as I call them. Ya know the ones with 3 leafs on each node instead of the usual two. I had never seen one quite like this. Have u ever had a seedling with these characteristics? I've just posted an update with a few pics. (In case u are interested) I'm actually depriving the bigger, more developed stem as well as the tiny fan leaf on that side (as u know it's that fan leaf that powers that stem) from light. Providing only half the plant with light. I've done this by tiying her down and putting thing to BLOCK light (never thought I'd be BLOCKING light lol) My idea is giving the smaller stem a chance to catch up and give her a certain simetry for the manifolding plans I have for her. It has become my pet project. I thought I'd have to scrap a few plants. Especially now that the fine folks at Greenhouse Seed Company have chose me (amount many more users if this site) to send seeds as well as their fertilizers for a contest. Best diary wins trip to Amsterdam for 2 ppl. I'd love to take the Mrs to Amsterdam but even if that doesn't happen it was certainly cool of them to send us these products (still haven't received them but got an email confirming I will). As stoked as I am about that GHS Company project I've grown so find of this mutant (photoperiodic mind u) that there's no way I'm getting rid of her. I'm seeing her through. THEN I'll fully dedicate myself to the GHS project. Sorry for writing so much. Hope I'm not boring u. It's the quarantine life. Also I've sent u a private message in the chat. A question I'm hopping u can help me with. Also hope u don't mind but I'll be following your grow. Cheers man. have A good one Growers' love.

@DaSofaSurfer, a small mutant, this ones are very important and desired by breeders. From this specimens usually you'd create new strains due to their unusual appearance. Good luck with it!

@Ferenc, yeah. outdoor in England is no cakewalk. I stayed there a while and know what the weather is like. I respect your hustle tho. in that regard Im easier off than u. here weather is pretty mild. btw a fellow grower who is more accustomed to outdoor told me twas criket bites. not grasshoppers. the more u know.

@DaSofaSurfer, The same. Well, for me eeather is shit England 🇬🇧 London weather. Secondly I have snail 🐌 problem but it is nothing compare to grasshopper.... Experience? No.outdoors I have completed only one auto was good not big harvest but really tasty... Currently I have one pheno 18th week check it out she just started flowering. ;) No.worries outdoor is today new to me also but keep learning :)

@Ferenc, meh. not too happy. don't have much experience with outdoors. grasshoppers feasting on her leaves. I'm certainly curious to see how she comes out. thanx for stopping by growmie
