I have this one girl from seed that was going really well, but suddenly she started sprouting sets of one leafs!!! she looks alright other than that, except, some leaf curl. does that mean nutrient overdose?
I'm just worried cause she was looking good!!!

Can you give us more info? How about the details of your setup/nutes/pH if you have it etc.

Pics would be good if the upload works too.

Hi there,

are you saying that you have switched to 12 hours of darkness and 12 hours of light (flowering)?

Seems to me like there is a small problem with the DNA of the plant. It will probably go away. A photo would really help to say something more accurate.

Still it could be other things. I've seen plants going one leaf after changing photo-period from flowering to vegging. Make sure your dark period is DARK and that your timer is not messing with you.

Good luck

Normally I would say it would be alright if it was a clone, depending on where on the plant you took a cutting it can tend to be one leafed branches, but it ends up fixing itself.
You on the other hand have a seed,so I agree with ganja, sounds like it's the genes of the plant itself rather than anything else..... the 5 fingered leaves or more is the plant type and only something that mucked with it's genes would be able to create that.

twisted leaves are a sign of ph problem and I noticed you didn't put down any ph readings. What is the fert solution ph before watering and the runoff after?

This is very important.

Also, if you need to water everyday and the pot is dry the next day, you need to repot to a bigger container.

cause of housing issues, all may be pulled.
also, i do not know any PH readings, or how to read those readings....
but yeah, maybe genetic, but some of the bottom leaves are normal.

I have others that have four of five sets of leaves, confirmed females, and been in veg for a while. most of the leaves have other little leaves coming off, not sure waht the technical name is...
but yeah! should i put them in flower?

If you do not have enough light for the plants' it's not worth it.. what wattage are you using for flowering? How big are the plants? How big is your grow room space?

you must learn and master ph if you expect good consistent results or you will be in here spinning your wheels every grow.

sound advice..i agree! Ph imbalance is the root to many probs along with salt build up- which can effect the ph drasticaly. :joint:
