I read that this is a rather uncommon mutation, and given that they are growing so diferentes in speed and shape, I now wonder about the sex. The seeds are supposed to be feminized, but does anybody know what could happen in this case?

That's a pretty awesome mutation! If you purchased the seed as fem they should be female. The chance of a true fem seed growing into a male is like 1 in 1000 or possibly even rarer than that. The reason for the differences in growth could be a couple of things. 1 would be that even though they are twins they may not be identical. That would mean they would likely grow at different rates as you are experiencing and they will have features unique from each other such as leaf shape, bud shape, and internodal spacing. 2, you may have stunted the one that's growing slower by doing the separation. If you happened to damage the root of the smaller one a little when you separated them it would have taken the plant a little bit of time to recover before it could resume growing full speed again.

Twins are very rare but it is a positive mutation as you can grow 2 plant ad the same time but it will not affect the grow , the genetic or the sex so If you've bought a feminised pack of seeds them they will remain female or in the worst case hermies. About the different shape and speed it is because canna twin are not genetics copy of each other 😊✌️🏼

Hi @mauroGrow! There's nothing to worry about, both of these should be fem. You could also proceed to selection, keep the fastest/strongest and kill the slow/weird one. Happy growing! 👊

It shouldn't has any effect about the sex; that mean that she should be a girl 👍 Ps. Im not sure if its really a mutation or if the leafs are just not full developed. Time will show 😁 Best wishes ✌️
