Hey guys, I've germinated one Lemon AK Auto seed from Fast Buds and I've noticed two root taps coming out. Next day one fell off, but I planted it anyways and now I have one extra small plant. Today I've noticed that THIRD plant is emerging from the same seed. What would you do ?

This is new to me. 3 in one seed. But I think it might be different. Maybe a 2nd seed fell into the mix when prepping it?? The snapped root tip should not have grown into anything, if it did. weird. really weird. From the images provided it look like there is one seed with one tap root and one seed cap that is almost separated from the cotyledons, plus one root tip that's snapped off on moist white paper towel. the 2nd pic shows one plant, is this the little plant that grow from a snapped root tip?? The third pic looks like the main plant and a new plant. It also looks like the main seed has sprouted and is the bigger one, and in the previous image it looks like the seed shell has split fully from the plant, but the new sprout has helmet head meaning it came from a seed that has not separated from the shell... So it makes me think this is a entirely new seed that got into the mix somehow. Other theory, the one seed had a twin that separated really fast and if not just a snipped root tip then the 2nd plant in the same pot as main plant is a random addition by accident. Twins don't normally grow all that well, normally one dwarfed and the other average. If you don't have any more seeds or the means to get more in time, grow it out, It could be shit but better then nothing. If you have others you might want to think of starting a new one and not waist your time. Maybe reach out to fastbuds and get their opinion. Mention you are worried about the rates of shit twin plants and see if they will get you a new seed. For the helmet head plant, spray water on the seed head the moisten it, will help shed that shell. be careful if you need to remove it manually it. Can easily kill your plant. tweezers help. Good Luck!

I’ve only heard of two sprouts from one seed a handful of times. Each time the grower said they under performed. Has something to do with genetics I assume. I have never heard of three from the same seed and likely they would never turn into much of anything. It would be very interesting if you started a diary here to keep up with each one.

Get rid of it, it is a genetic mutant that will never grow properly. Life is too short to grow "maybes"!. Others may say.."ooh it is wonderful, you might be surprised", but in my experience, seeds like this always under perform, mostly are hermies and generally a waste of time and effort that disappoint.
