I'm thinking about repoting them once they straighten out.

A lot of times they will compete with each other, and one will "give up" . separating them will be a possible challenge and can damage or kill both. Most people will let them grow out for a bit until they see trouble and just cut down the weak one.

.... KkB, absolutely not an issue mate, plenty of space for all here :smoking:.... single cotyl's are not so uncommon, so are tri-nodal plants,... some correct after the first or second set of true leaves, others in the case of trinodals may keep that pattern all the way,.. those are a hoot! Mono-nodal plants don't seem to fair well if the apical meristem doesn't 'reboot" to normal growth pattern,.... cannabis horticulture is part science, part practical green thumb knowledge! We all know, there's no substitute for experience! If ever you have problems, post up in the Infirmary, ok? Auto's, photo's there's no difference in the approach for germ'ing seeds, and there's more than one perfectly good way to do it,.... You can however, over emphasize the technical aspects and maybe worry too much about specifics,... the basics for germ'ing are proper temps, and RH%,.. domes aren't needed really, unless the RH% is low,... covering them with little to no airflow invites fungal crap to show, and under that dome it's well into the 90's%RH, which isn't optimal either,.... nice warm temps are key in germ'ing, high 70's low 80's, and darkness,...
So, you're growing in coco? That is a fine medium, but tricky,.. that's where some serious research is need first, as it's a unique soilless meduim with several do's and don'ts, unlike peat based soilless,... coco has some odd CEC properties (cation exchange capacity), which makes it a major Ca hog, mg to a lesser extent,... high quality is a must as coco has a lot of native Na and K in it until it's aged, rinsed, and CEC buffered (not pH).... coco will keep the Ca to itself until sated, roots won't be able to uptake it,... depending on your water source and nutes (coco specific), Ca-Mg may be needed every time to water/feed, which in coco, is a lot more like hydro than true soil... in coco you feed every time, never water alone, unless there's an issue, then Ca-Mg is needed regardless,... [HASHTAG]#1[/HASHTAG] problem medium I see here, many folks treat it like true soil and that results in a TARFU situation very time! It's upside is that it breathes better than anything else, holds and releases water very well,... large pots are not necessary, in fact most coco gurus here don't go more than 3gal,... monsters can be had in small pots, but your challenge is to keep them well fed and moist,.. in stand alone pots, you need to be doing drain-to-waste with about 15-20% run-off each time, to keep nute salts from building up,.... monitoring the run-off EC/ppm's is key, as is pH going in and out,...
Are you using HPS lights? How far away was the light? Seedlings want less intense light, as well as moderate temps and RH%,.... consistent even moisture as well,.... coco is devoid of nutes. so feeding should start within a few days weakly at first,....

First of all, thanks!

So we bought an in house blend from our local garden center, its a legal recreational state, so their specialty is the skunk cabbage. Coco, peat, and perlite (the shop calls it Mix2). We precharged this with slf-100, and 1/6 strength veg nutes (GH) and cal-mag in 5 gallon custom air pots. (We took a bucket, drilled a ton of holes in it, and lined it with landscape fabric.) Great drainage...

4X8x6 tent
2 select a watt ballasts
1hortilux super HPS 1000w, dimmed to 600(says good for all stages)
1MH dimmed to 600
Lights hung max height ~4 feet above

Temps staying in upper 70s, low 80s
RH 40-50%
24/7 light
Negative pressure, great ventilation, lights are ducted straight through with fan, another exit fan w/filter, and intake fan.

We may have kept the seedlings in the sprouter too long under the dome, but transplanted when taproot emerged from bottom of root riot plug (i have since germed an auto big bud and this took all of 3 days, vs the week and a half for those in question). I waited too long to feed, they have since reponded incredibly, but have shown signs of npk and cal mag deficiency at the start, but things have picked up considerably since feeding.

The largest plant was mainlined yesterday above the 4th node and didnt miss a beat, almost sealed the stem already and secondaries reaching up... I honestly feel like the seed batch was a little whack, as these issues didn't come up with 2 of 3 of the Critical Purps germed a few days later and the 1 Big Bud from this week...

We are really new at this, and spent most of our research time on RDWC which we have thrown in the towel on for this grow and planted all but one in the coco blend.

The one NS in DWC bubbleponics is getting megacrop and THRIVING.

We'll get it ironed out somehow or another, but I think we have a few freaks in there with the msnl northern storm batch. Ironically, we had an issue with germ rates and not a single one shed the seed husk independently, so they sent me 10 more. Wish they would have sent something different, lol.

The smaller sprout is doing better in my older soil mix. I got them separated. My plants haven't grown much. I just pulled my lights back a bit, I think I had them set too close.

Here's a leaf with leafs growing off of it. From my second round of shot adrenaline, they have been odd and I'm not sure how they will compare to my previous harvest.

Hello all! I'm a second year grower, on my third grow now, and this is my first ever autoflower seedling. She's a feminized auto Lemon OG from MSNL. I got a pair of them as freebies when I ordered some photo seeds, and didn't plan on growing them. But I recently moved into a smaller place, now autos are all I have room for! I put in an order for some Grapefruit Auto seeds from Fast Buds, and they should arrive soon enough. But without further adue, here is my first ever autoflowering cannabis plant, a trifoliate feminized Auto Lemon OG.

I have three plants that look like this I'm stumped!

Thats mega weird Pops almost looks like nanners popping from every calyx but then again not quite so god knows is me stumped too but freaky looking for sure will be interesting to what other info the brainy crew come up with on this one

 

[pop22]

I'm suspecting contamination in the compost, 5 out of 6 are like this and I've never had any hermies or anything in my Blue Dragons. Can't say I've grown a huge number, but at least 200 likely more.

@pop22 thanks for posting the Funkies here my man! ..... yes, I was going to say, this is your girl, you've grown and seen a ton... ... and 5/6 were like this? No statistical way that's just damn bad luck from a mix of seeds, it far more reasonable to assume it's something common to all-- like a FUBAR mix! ... really begs the question WTF could it be, to cause this, late in the plants life... pop', these are reg's right?... can't blame a fem'ing snafu either if so,... I don't know breeding much, but I imagine it's possible that one section of bud or branch got exposed to something during maturation that could lead to a consistent anomaly..? ... but again, the likelihood of drawing that many fragg'ed seeds from a mixed sack is crazy-talk improbable,... Were you able to do a little dissection, close-up like? I'm with Spanglish, even the "intersex" parts look intersexed!- ...just what kinda lube are you using in there anyway?
In that gonad scrum I can't tell a nanner from a pistil from wadded up,... ehhh, nevermind..! ......

Here is my Auto Lemon OG mutant from MSNL at 29 days above soil. Slowly gaining momentum in her growth as it continuously attempts to stabilize.
