Thought I read somewhere that too much nitrogen can cause new growth to be twisted. Someone can Google it. Also the leaves look dark green, indicating N toxicity possibly. Weird.

Yes you are correct, i have the type of N toxicity ur speaking of on a new strain pure sativa. it's nothing like what these look like tho, he doesnt have the clawing that too much nitrogen gives, like i got. the twisting from N toxicity happens in the new growth that has the neon green color to it. It doesnt twist the whole plant over. These are my observations from my current grow.

Hope this helps

Ran across this the other day.

If you scroll you will see a plant growing like a vine, i know yours don't have the spiraling but maybe its not that extreme.

I do see on that image some upside down leafs.

Anyway just reminded me of this

That’s a good read man. Could this be a rare mutation I literally can’t find any info on it or anyone who has experience this. That vine like mutation is pretty close to it and even that they say is a rare mutation hmm. I’m interested
Should I clone????

Fucking strange....Only time I have seen twisting even xlose that extreme was due to severe ph imbalance. The main difference is that in the case I'm thinking of the overall plant health didn't look nearly as good as yours does and the twisting was really only on the new growth. Have you been checking the pH of your solution after adding your nutrients?

Yea man ph runoff is exactly at 7.0 when I transplanted into these 5gals I added some dolomite lime to balance the ph they love it and I add cal mag when needed

That is pretty freaky! I mean the plants look like they are in excellent health when they aren't all curled up on you, I am like everyone else so far never seen anything like it, indoor or outdoor. I am interested to see how these turn out, do you have a journal going on these girls? I think you could get a pretty good following for that. I know I would subscribe!!

Up to you, i can tell you that in my opinion it is not a desirable trait.
More of a pain in the ass for training.

But you never know, you could clone it and next run it might not even appear.
I have had a few things happen sometimes and sometimes not.

Im not an expert but my feeling is that
These things are in the plant but only triggered sometimes by who knows what.

I had a plant do that, just not quite as extreme as yours. It was the only one out of a handfull that did it. She was the most vigorous of the bunch too. Im lead to believe its from rapid water uptake & this rapid uptake causes the twisting of the stems forcing the bottom sides of the leaf to be the "solar panel" until it regulates within the plant. It also quit doing it as soon as it went into 12/12.

I have seen a few leafs turn upside outdoors and always thought they were trying to turn the sun off a little
By flipping the leaf

I’m deff keeping a journal on this and have already contacted the breeder he says it’s interesting and looks as if she’s weeping from eating I’m not sure what he means by that any ideas?
