Plant branching off.

Is this a normal thing? I feel like I've never seen once branch start to break off like this. Plant seems to be doing fine. Just thought it was kind of odd.

I have only had this happen once and it was never an issue with that plant. I believe it is just a genetic mutation that causes this to happen because I was 100% sure there was no damage to the plant when it happened. On the plus side, this is a really good thing to increase your yield. You essentially have a “topped” branch without having to do it and causing stress on the plant. Looking at your diary, you are probably entering flowering stage this upcoming week if you’re starting to get massive growth. Going to be crazy to see how much they grow in the next two weeks. Hope this helps.

Self topping. Happens sometimes. Nice it did this on its own on an auto flower. now you can LST like its been topped but it was not giving any HST so it won't strss it out to much.. Good Luck!

Although not common, it is not that uncommon either, I have seen this quite a few times over the last 40 years of cultivation. Sometimes plants/branches do this for no apparent reason, it is just a slightly weird genetic mutation. It is nothing to be worried about or panic over and it is exactly the same as if the plant has "topped" itself. I have seen both main stems and any number of random branches do this on various plants, it does not seem strain related, caused by damge or poor nutrition etc, just a random mutation that won't affect potency negatively, but will increase yields positively.
