Just posted a pic of a seedling I have that appears to have a double stem. I never had a plant go flat vine on me before and I was wondering if this was an early indication of that mutation?

hey Brent, Don't like the sound if it believe me flat /double is not the way you want to spend your season...Think a regular one is hard to train forget a flat one!! Good Luck Grow em Big! Chuck

flat and double are two different animals, if you go into the photo gallery and look under my name you'll see a pict of a double-vine and a pict of a flat vine! best thing to do with a flat is terminate the flat vine and train a secondary vine to be your main if early enoughon the double vines they usually split into two normal main vines just terminate one.

i looked at the pic and right now it's a tossup. i've seen a lot of flat/ribbon/double/multiple vines in my day, and only a few of them are odd from the get-go. you will be able to tell better in a week or so, when the first true leaves come out. problem is, the ones that double up that early are really slow growers early on.
