Strange looking pot plant

The seed that started that girl on the right came from the same pound as the one that started the plant at left. Have any of you ever met a plant with that extra wrinkly vascular system in the leaves? Is it a problem?
Its kind of neat looking & I'd like to keep it if its not a total waste of time, space, sunlight and compost. Might have neat looking flowers too.

I have had three plants turn up with the same leaf bumps since June.
I use store bought feminized seeds and plant them in pairs. In all three cases it was half a pair with bumpy leaves, one smooth one bumpy. Different strains each time as well.
Two out of three grew caught up on growth rate but never lost the bumps. One of the three had to be tossed because of small size and slow growth.

Warmer climate has put more insect pests in my area than in previous years.
The randomness of the affliction makes me wonder, as does it's affecting different strains.

This is beginning to be my opinion too. I have the weird plant and 3 of it's siblings and the siblings are all aggressive monsters; LOUD, fast growing & very healthy. This weirdo is one of my smallest & slowest growing plants of any type. I guess the fans just aren't expanding all the way for whatever reason. Still its an interesting looking plant, but not too many people are interested in ornamental garden varieties of pot plants (not yet anyhoo, its a market that might be out there some day soon)

Here is a recent photo of the normal plant next to Miss Wrinkly. Same batch of seeds, sprouted at the same time and kept in nearly identical conditions.

That one on the left has turned out to be the most aggressively growing pot plant I've ever seen, it just leaps out of the dirt. It darkened up a few shades since that photo was taken.

looks like some sort of root issue

I think I've realized that the issue with Miss Wrinkly is that while her fan leaves are full sized by total surface area (small sized leaves with very complex topography), because the leaves don't fully expand they are very undersized with respect to light gathering surface area and so this plant will never be able to gather adequate photons unless its grown on Mercury. Maybe I'll breed it and save the seeds for that occasion…no, it would have to be bred to a ruderalis because Mercury doesn't rotate and I don't have a ruderalis male.

Could be a paper bag princess, but unlikely. Seed pops bring the freaks out. We had one a few years back, grew leaves full of holes, like it was some jungle style plant lighting up lowers.

Kill the weak and eat the rich.

I did enjoy the "looks like" back and forth. Down right purgatorial.

The fuck did Mercury do to you.

Light green is good, especially in flower.

I've found my maximum quality flowers come from the lightest feed possible, while still feeding enough to sustain full and healthy growth.

Once your plants hit maximum growth rates, adding additional nutes will only decrease end flower quality. Main reason I prefer mono-cropping with clones of known feed/maturation.

Amazing plant!
