Abnormal growth trait?

Oooooh my first post!!!


Ok now that I've released my pent up exuberance (did I spell that right?) my question is that i have a 2 wk 3 day old plant (that is from the time i put the seed in the paper towel) and it is growing its leaves not in a 1, 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 prong pattern (not including cotelydons, or seed leaves), but instead has a pattern that starts 1, then 3, but the next pair has a 5 prong on one side and a 7 on the next, then progresses to 9 and 11 prong leaves.

im personally excited about the growth, but im not sure if i should be.

also, since the plant now has about 5 nodes, despite being 5 inches high, is it safe or resonable to put the plant into a 12/12 light cycle on day 21 (3weeks)?

sry i dont have any pics to show, but should have some soon, at which point i hope to start a grow journal....thx for the help!!

also, im growing it under one 23w cfl daylight spectrum with enclosed reflector at 2 inches distance, but planning to move int into a white wall cabinet with 6 total cfls. when and if it tops 2 ft, i will place it under 10-12 cfls. im growing in miracle grow 3 month moisture control, butnot certain what type of soil i sould move to and what fert i should use, but i was thinking just straight potting soil and some bat guano for blooming, as well as a additive that is a 1-50-10 ratio. too much?

thanks again...

No one!!?!

ah well, i also added a 38 watt 2700k cfl to my 4 6500k 23 watt cfls. i plan to use only these lights for flowering, is that enough?

Welcome to RIU, Martian Farts.

1-50-10 seems like a bad idea(I use much more balanced nutrients). More bulbs, the better.

Yea, you can flower with both spectrums. 1:1 is a pretty good ratio.

thnx for the welcome..i love this site, and im on here almost all day (my mouse no longer works on my laptop, including the touchpad, so no more video games). i got the 1-50-10 idea because a buddy of mine uses that in addition to bat guano bloom formula. total of prbly 10-60-15...as for my plants i know have 6 growing under 18/6, with the addition of prbly another 5-10 on the way soon. my oldest plant, at 21 days old now has 7 sets of leaves, 5 fully formed secondary branches, and the newest set of leaves looks to be an 11 prong!! always wanted one...but to finally clear it up, should i put my plants into 24 hour darkness before flowering?

bbbuuuuummmmpppp!!
