Default polyploidic traits?
Hi guys, got 6 XXX OG Kush started from seed in their 5th week.
One of them has one node showing 3 branches while the other are the normal 2.

Wondering if this is a polyploidic trait, and if it's worth trying to breed for the genetic.

Thanks ahead!

although it may be a desired trait, it is not always easy to get that desired trait out, although crossing and backcrossing will probably achieve this, good luck

usually they grow out of it after a few nodes....if it stays polypoidic once it's mature (alternating fan leaves) then it's worth trying to save the trait through breeding, I've seen plants grow in and out of it, so it must be a trait that can be influenced by the environment as well.

Thanks for the tip boys
I will let it mature a bit and attempt the backcrossing method
to bring out the pollypoidic trait. I'll update this thread and report the outcome!

Any idea what's the origin of XXX OG Kush?
Local dispensary is telling me it is a cross of Thai, Nepali, and Afghani heritage.
