Post Your Polyploids

[PhobosAnomaly]

I got one for you guys. There is only one I have found on this plant. It is a bag seed from mexican commercial weed. I have two different strains/bags in flower right now. I have been watching it's growth for a while.

Here is a stem shot.

Yup absolutely a polyploid
Crazy how much in a few of those pics, she looks like my mutant.
The flat wide stem, and the pics from above... the mutant bud formation and a regular flower shooting off the side.
Awesome
I had to take a closer look as I thought, aren't those my plants?!

Thanks for sharing!

I saw the resemblance in your pics. It prompted me to jump on the wagon, and go take the stem shot whilst she was sleeping.

These polyploid bud pics are getting me exited.

Yaaa...wow.

Well, I'll join in on the fun. This is my first Polyploid plant. It is a Darkstar, one of three that I'm growing. Seeds all from the same breeder.
A little history on it: When the plant was in veg stage, very young, I did some training on the lower branches and accidentally bent one on this plant too far causing a supercropping. The stem wound up flat from a couple inches below the "bend" and all the way up into the bud that formed into a polyploid. Now, whether the accidental bend on the stem was a factor in this or not is questionable...but I just wanted to be sure to document what happened. The pics are in order of current to beginning when I noticed it.

Thank you for posting.
It certainly looks like a polyploid, but I'd love to see pics of the stem, at the base of that bud

I do not believe "supercropping" can cause a polyploid, at least I've seen no documentation to support that. From my understanding polyploidy is a genetic mutation, or as I understand, can be induced with a chemical; not a result of stress or what have you. That being said, I'm no expert either If my understanding is incorrect, someone correct, please!

I really don't think the bend was the cause either, but I had to throw that in there because it happened on that branch.
I'll try to get some stem pics tomorrow morning for ya.

Did either of you do any topping and training? I understand stress would not cause it. If it was already a present genetic anomaly, could stress trigger it? Also does using Colchicine make the buds GMOs?


I did both topping and training on this plant. The poly is a branch, off of one of the original branches.

heres mine start of flower, best pictures i could get for now but the end of the stem has grown into a 90degree angle, i think the crazy node growth has pushed it horizontal, it hasnt stretched like the other branches but gone into a sort of fat interwined ball of growth.

polyploid strawberry

 

[coralman]

the difference in size it causes it pretty huge in comparison.

Did the original plant, front which your poly is from, display polyploid traits?

Ya mine kind of took a weird change in direction too, but then pointed to the light again in the stretch
It get hard to get in there to take a good picture, so thanks man!

Please keep updating here on the progress of your plant!

This is the earliest pic I have, and it is out of focus. I noticed that it was there early on. I didn't think to research it until it showed the elongated and split flower.

 

[scrogster]

Here is the one I have some weird growth to, she is still veg it's gold rush by canuck seeds, which is Tangie/Kosher kush

never had a stalk so thick in a month old plant

Hmmmm here is my gold rush from canuck seed bank she is looking sexy .

4 days into flower

 

[MyDogSpot]

It looks like any of the branches that grew from the flat stem, are really thick compared to the rest.

The question on topping and training:

I didn't do any topping or training on my plant, other than some of the lower branches when young to spread them out to get more light.

 

[coralman]

I didnt need to top or train my plant as it did it all for me haha, it showed polyploid from about the 3rd set of nodes up around 2-3 weeks in

A few pics from yesterday.
She was showing/In flower as of March 19.
