Mutated seedling? Code Blue

[halpme]

Need help with this seedling that germinated June 10th. Seemed stunted, the first true leaves are the really small ones, the second pair turned into a triple, then so forth. Seems like its really mutated? Lots of new leaves springing up over night at once. Very short, one side a leaf was wrinkled? is it Duck foot? Photos attached: First two was from 2 days ago and last two are from today.
pH is 6 with runoff water, humidity is great, temp issues were a little cold at first but now its perfect around 70s. 24 hr light w/ 2 T5 48 watt grow lamps. using organic soil, not too sure what kind.... Haven't given any nutrients yet since I am worried about nute burn, etc from the organic soil. Any advice is welcome! Thank you!

Whatever it is it looks like it's growing out of it. Maybe just some damage from the past so it grew out a bit odd

I appreciate your feedback! Thank you so much! She does seem to be doing better after I left her alone with better temps :)

Looks too wet, pH is too low, try 6.5 in soil for best results

KILL IT!! KILL IT BEFORE IT GROWS AND TAKES OVER THE WORLD!!!
:speechless: Actually, it's nothing at all to worry about. Sometimes plants start off funky like this, or there is another condition where they grow in 3 ways (Trifoliate?) instead of the normal 2. It's fine and will give you a great plant as long as you don't overfeed or over-mother it, and at the worst (aside from the obvious), you will get a wild looking plant. Good luck and don't fuss with it too much and you will be rewarded Don't go crazy over every spot or discoloration that you see, as they grow slowly and on their own schedule. Very slow and steady works best, and don't overfeed them!

Awesome thank you so much for the advice! She's lookin' pretty good so far! Tomorrow she'll be 3 weeks old from sprouting. Here's an update:

Another update on the weedling! Here's a 5 day difference. Right is today :D

 

[jerkchicken]

My plants I'm running now had a few mutations on the leaves when young and they're doing just fine now! Just keep loving them and giving them what they want and they'll return the favour I'm sure!

 

[halpme]

In a few days it'll be week 4 since sprouting. I think she'll be doing just fine. Let me know when you think I could actually tell the sex of the plant haha as I have no idea.

 

[halpme]

And here she is at 4 weeks yesterday. Definitely some strange growth but maybe she'll show her official gender soon! Do you think I should transplant her again into a bigger pot? I've transplanted her at one week (xsmall starter pot to small pot), three weeks to a medium and might need to at this point again maybe in the final big pot?

She’ll get root bound in that pot. I would either size way up or get a fabric pot to put her in.

Got the final pot ready, I'll be moving her soon! She's 4 weeks, not seeing any male parts yet but as I have no idea what this code blue will be. Hoping she is a female! :D Thank you for the advice!

 

[halpme]

She's female! Week 6 update, when do you think I can clone her? Which branches would be best cut?

 

[Seraphine]

She’s not big enough yet. Wait until she has a lot of side beaches and take cuts that are about 4-5” in length.

Looking good! When I top a plant I root the top I cut off

 

[Aqua Man]

The most ideal spot to take cutting are the lowest branches. Any cutting will work and as @Beachwalker if your topping you may as well clone it.

I take my cuttings from the bottom of the plant just before flower since I do remove some of the lower branches and foliage then.

 

[halpme]

Thank you all so much!!! I'll give it a few more weeks before I remove the lower branches but I'll def clone the top!

Like many, who’ve posted above, clones need the size necessary by removing bottom growth. If you took a clone from the top of the plant, you’d be removing a sizable portion, where many new nodes start, I feel it’s safer to take from the bottom of the plant...just sayin.

Sounds like a good idea to me. I'll wait to do anything until shes about 8 or 9 weeks to give her more time :) she had a rough beginning and I'm sure that slowed her down then.
