Betting on your lazy arse

Just a quick one, Is this likely to be a result of lazy re-amending?

These leaves are 2 of only perhaps 5 all on one branch on just one of the group of otherwise happy and healthy looking plants

Actually it isn't mate.
It's kinda strange just one random branch with these leaves.
It grew into it if you know what I mean so I thought perhaps the roots have hit a pocket of nutes or visa versa.

Or would you expect more of the plant to be effected if this were the case?

It's not a big concern, only i hadn't seen it before so I thought one of you boys might have

I vividly remember thinking to myself after re-amending the soil "jeez that was a half arsed attempt at mixing up".

I wanna get a small concrete mixer for this exact reason

I have read something about the variegation is a mutation. It's about half way down the page.
Might be close.
Well done mate I reckon you're spot on with the variegation thingymajig/ mutation after reading that. It's obviously more common than I realised.
There was one leaf I found which was perfectly two-toned right down the middle like it'd be drawn with a texter. Very strange

Yep, got me fucked as well. Never heard that term used before in relation to growing.

Sorry , auto correct fasciation


Although fasciation is rare overall, it has been observed in over 100 vascular plant families, including members of the genera Acer, Aloe, Acanthosicyos, Cannabis, Celosia, Cycas, Delphinium, Digitalis, Echinacea, Euphorbia, Forsythia, Glycine max

Fasciation is a genetic mutation of a plant's growing tip, and it can visibly affect the stem, flowers, or fruits. It often leads to multiple extra flowers being produced on the affected stems, typically with many secondary blooms surrounding the normal, expected one. The flowers themselves may be flattened or elongated, crushed together, or otherwise misshapen in ways which may or may not be interesting or appealing to the eye.

Sometimes, the effects can be obvious, creating grossly oversized stems and flowers with a weirdly grotesque look. The closer to the ground that fasciation happens, the more exaggerated its effects tend to be.

But sometimes the results are much less dramatic. The growing shoots can be flattened, splayed apart, or may seem to be made up of several stems fused into one. The flowers may be subtly malformed rather than hugely so, and may stay single rather than producing abnormal bunches or sprays.

Yep I had one flat stem/branch and fasciated flower on one of the recent blue cheese. Basically the branch/ stem ends up like a flat celery stalk … I let it go and was surprised it didn’t get bud rot / mould with the deformed stacked cola but it turned out ok. But in general those fasciated flowers don’t end up that great - mine was only one small branch. It had a touch of variegation with a couple of two tone leaves also … certainly had a touch of mutant to it.

Cool, now that you guys mentioned that, I have seen that type of growth before, just not with Cannabis.

Thanks for explaining that Mick I can't say I've ever heard of fasciation until now.
They're not negatively affected as far as I can see and I think it's growing out so hopefully she's apples mate

Thanks for the info, had this happen last year and didn't know what it was. Got all excited as I thought I was going to have monster Main Cola but it was all trash in the end

Thanks for this Mick I have a mustard vine with this exact thing happening, normally it's a single stemmed vine but I noticed the other week that one stem was actually made up of 3 stems fused together and the new growth is just weird and scrunched up. I'll post a pic of it tomorrow just to be sure. I have been wondering what it is, I actually thought it was due to being sprayed with roundup(my neighbour)..

The 1st pic is the normal way it grows and the 2-3 pics are what's been happening. Flat and curly bits..

Pretty cool that...If it were me I'd chop the rest of the plant and see if the variegation/colouring continues to grow into an entire plant and remains stable....might create a new variety..

Variegation happens from time to time in many plants sometimes it takes over the entire plant but often not as the variegated leaves often get out-competed by the green ones which photosynthesise better...

Sometimes when we grow a batch of seedlings of whatever plants, sports occasionally pop up.....that one just looks like a regular cellular genetic mutation or sport..

Just recently their was a bit of an aroid boom for plant collectors that saw some plants, particularly those that were selected from seedlings that showed different variegation traits , that were selling for up to many thousands of dollars each...we sold plenty in the hundreds..a mate sold plenty for 2.5-7K for single unrooted tip cuttings for very rare and self bred stuff as he is a specific aroid breeder/collector..... I have a variety of Heliconia (Rauliniana) which has recently grown all new variegated leaves....I put it down to viral variegation which is different again..

Fasciation is different in that it relates to the actual form of the plant as per stickies photo's .

Nature certainly throws up some interesting curve-balls at times...

I've seen heaps of ad's regarding the variegated versions of lilies or something similar and yep people are asking and getting extraordinary amounts of money for them..actually I know they are asking but not 100% on the getting bcoz some are as you said in the 1000's so it counts me out..sorry I wouldn't even pay that for a mully so yeah nah..
