Yes; slightly. I think what you have also an N excess... Of some origin. I see signs of high vegetation in that plant; which is common trait accompanying fox-tailing; and it seems to be in early stages. Note how the hairs are just starting to coalesce; tangle...

Looks like excessive sugar leafing with distinctly bent tips. It's certainly speculative and mild; but I see it.



Slight Sulfur (S) deficiency. This seems to be a common issue (for me) during the (flip)???


Strange; my thoughts on this is that each cultivar has various optimum "nutrient" ratios; at various developmental milestones; and they play out a little differently each grow cycle. Especially with regards to the specific "cuts" of historical cultivars you mention.


Variegation

Nutrient deficiency symptoms may cause a temporary or variable yellowing in specific zones on the leaf. Iron and magnesium deficiencies are common causes of this.
Transposable elements can cause colour variegation. (Which is what I see in that plant; or perhaps possibly; something more sinister)

Pathological Virus infections (aka sinister) may cause patterning to appear on the leaf surface. The patterning is often characteristic of the infection. At first, diseased plants were propagated and grown for their mottled foliage

Pigmentary cause of variegation is the masking of green pigment by other pigments, such as anthocyanins. This often extends to the whole leaf, causing it to be reddish or purplish. On some plants however, consistent zonal markings occur

Chimera variegation is due to the presence of two kinds of plant tissue, propagating the plant must be by a vegetative method of propagation that preserves both types of tissue in relation to each other.

Rare Chimera Variegation seen at the Pedro's Taco stand near my apartment.

It has been suggested that some patterns of leaf variegation may be part of a defensive "masquerade strategy." In this, leaf variegation may appear to a leaf mining insect that the leaf is already infested, and this may reduce parasitization of the leaf by leaf miners. This is a district possibility also in this case.

In August 2020 a variegated Rhaphidophora tetrasperma plant sold at auction for US$5,300. In June 2021 another variegated Rhaphidophora tetrasperma plant sold at auction for US$19,000.

Agreed.

Yea, I should take some cuttings; do you think it will do the same thing? Or was that simply grafted into it...

I've looked on the property; and that's the only one I see that have both flowers; but there are another two that only have the pinks; without the whites... Look closely at those flowers, cause they are two distinct different types; not just colors... Even the structure matrix is much differently distributed. It's an amazing looking freak. Blows my mind.

I'm really on the fence weather that thing can propagate itself; or if it's a one up. I'll try to look for branches that have both flowers on it. How to do a tree cutting.... 🤣 How hard is that one?

I think I'm going to dig up a few bamboo's around here and take them with me; put them in my stream beds; out there also.

Yea man it's a beast. Not prone to hermy at all in my experience. I've seen some come out super larfy for some reason I think it's when people over do it with nutrients. When done correctly every nug on every branch is a bag bud.

Usually kick myself for not growing more of it.

It also makes great crosses
I stand corrected again... Need to run the GMO someday.

63>>>70 days flowering... Something to consider also; but that's certainly not a game stopper.

That's a fools errand IMO. Just sayin...

Isn't that one hard enough to get right indoors? I would be scared to death of hermaphrodites. They always make me nervous in their many forms. Especially the sexy looking ones with weenies...
I don’t seam to have any issues growing her indoors, this is my first run with her I think I’ve got 10 in here there all the taller plants on the perimeter

I've never grown her personally; just concerned about the potential for nanners.... (which I generally steer clear) cause I know it's an issue. Sounds like otherwise it's a very stable plant; and not like some of the sativa's... or even some of the Indica's I've grown coming down from Alaska. I didn't realize (until now) she is considered an indica-dominant hybrid strain.


But I'm realizing there's a lot of them that fit snugly into this category that I'm just not fully educated about. ie. indica-dominant hybrid strain with (what I consider) sativa leaning traits.


It's certainly a mysterious strain. Get's me to thinking about how those male traits are intertwined with the potency; terpene profile; and her attributes. I suspect this would be a very difficult strain to isolate correctly into seed form.
