Gorilla zittles auto flower. Any idea what would cause leaves to grow like this?

Usually some plants have congenital mutations, this does not affect the taste and quality of the buds. In principle, 6-leaf or 7-leaf or 2-3-leaf can easily grow, this is a common thing. This does not affect growth in any way, it is just such a joke of nature

Could be genetics, could be balance of nutes... thin fingers and not developing successively more fingers each growth node is a sign of less than idea fertilization, too. 3-5-7-9-11-13 etc... whether it is missing 1 of those tiny fingers etc is less of a concern, but if you don't have a normal progression up to at least 9 fingers most of the time, there's a higher chance it is self inflicted. if this plant looks healthy and happy till the end, less likely it is fertilizer balance. At that point you lean toward blaming genetics, lol. If it ends up with toxicities and leaf symptoms, might be wise to re-assess fertilization choices, which you would do anyway. on its own, it's not enough to react to, imo. I can't recall any of my plants not progressing to at least 9 fingers, though... 200+ plants at this point and the only time i see that shit is on a revege or an extremely stressed plant. Training/pruning can reset that 'finger' progression too. It may have 13-finger leaves, then you top it or train it and new growth shows 5 and 7 finger leaves, initially, then should progress back up to what you saw before that training/pruning. That's perfectly normal. Stress definitely impacts what results in this regard.

Hey there 👋 From my point of view I would say it looks like a healthy normal plant, und stretch. No worries, she’ll get more leaves & enough buds in later stage 👊 Keep up the good work and enjoy growing 🍀👍

I think your plant looks absolutely great – it has a rich green color, strong leaves, and overall looks very healthy. As for the shape of the leaves: it’s completely normal for them to start out with just three “fingers.” As the plant matures, new leaves may develop five, and eventually even seven or more. Leaves with three, five, or seven fingers are completely typical – the older the plant and the newer the leaf, the more likely it is to have more fingers. So that’s perfectly normal and a sign of healthy growth. Keep doing the good work growmie.

Its almost midnight and I am blitzed but the only thing Im seeing is how stretched it is.I don't remember seeing strecthing like that before which means I probably have but can't remeber,ha.Your light has eeither been too far away.Iv just read your comment again,its late,ha.Its normal for the plant to get more fingers on the leaves as they grow.Im sure it gets more as it grows.I'm confusing myself now.Autos do some mad shit.

Can't see anything that would worry me, plant seems healthy and "normal". Cannabis can grow all sorts of weird shaped and strange number of bladed leaves at times, but it does not affect anything. There is nothing to worry about. The longer you grow, the more strange things you will see!

Thats
