This is weird to say the least..

This one hashberry plant came up with 3 sets of leaves -- even the very first leaves.

ahhhhhh......the wonders of mother nature. Never can tell, may be a super strain genetically. Then you'd have a beautiful "mom".
Is that a good strain quality/quantity wise ? Good luck friend, hope "she's" a beaut

the cannabis version of a 4 leaf clover?

Thats a first, never seen one like it, should be an interesting grow

They are called tri-foliates. I have two growing right now and had three last year. I want a male so I can breed for the tri effect.

Have you grown one of these through harvest?
Does it exhibit peculiar phenotype throughout it's life cycle?
Do you have any pictures of a fully grown trifoliate ?
Did any of them also produce "compound flower heads" ?

Took the words right out of my mouth.

Yes, I have grown them to maturity. Only the main stem show the pheno. When you top them you get 3 tops but the tri pheno stops there. Branches are normal as are clones unless you clone the main stem. I Inherited it from a Papaya seed pack I bought from buydutchseeds.com. It is showing up now in the hybrids I crossed the Papaya strain. I have one Papaya X White Widow hybrid tri and a Papaya Purple cross tri.
All of the flowers were normal the only thing different is the extra branch. I had one with 4 branches per node, well almost. A drop of water from the humidity dome fell on it and broke the stem. Hows that for luck?
Heres a picture of one that I topped then tried to kill. One branch is a little shorter than the other two

I am starting to think that this thread should possibly be moved to a grow journal..

If you grow long enough most will get their own "3 leaf clover" sooner or later. Bill you are the first person I know to try to work with it and stablize it as a strain. I agree with somedude that it would make a nice thread or grow journal.

ive had the experience of a quadfoliate, or four brancher, topped it and for branches came up, didnt try a second top so no idea about it.

I have a journal going. These will be included in this grow. I have 3 clones rooting in one of my phototrons. They are the bottom branches of one of the tris
2009 Bucket Brigade

Here's something to think about. I read that tris will always be female. I dunno bout that, but every one I have ever grown to maturity turned out to be female. The male Papaya plant was normal but must be carrying the gene.

The stuff on the leaves is just dirt..

shes sitting in a 2 gallon pot now too

justplainbill · #15 (**permalink**) 05-21-2009, 04:23 PM

Thats a beauty.

caerulipes · #16 (**permalink**) 05-21-2009, 07:50 PM

Beautiful plant. The trifolatism (is that a word?) has it fill out crazy thick.

Heh yah.. The hashberries look real similar to white widow plants.

"trifolatism" doesn't come up in the dictionary at all (FYI)

hi! ive got one of these right now too, i posted a thread on another forum and was reffered here. i started flowering 5 days ago, hasnt determined sex yet. i call it mitsubishi kuz when it had its first true leaves it looked like a mitsubishi logo, even the seed leaves had 3 its crazy.

i think mines a different kind than yours though it looks a little different. same tri effect. i found the stalk to be thicker and each node takes a while to develope.

SomeDude · #19 (**permalink**) 05-22-2009, 10:11 AM

got any pics of it?

There is someone here who has a quad-foliate going too.

Garbageman · #20 (**permalink**) 05-22-2009, 11:35 AM

heres some pics. that would be crazy if its a male, we could really get something going. Triple Passion Seed Co.??? ill take some better ones later, theres some moth damage on the top, not bad (slaughtered the culprit).
