This Is from a bag seed from a friend who claims the bud was amazing and he only Found one seed…(this was like 2 years ago) but any way, Its week 8… Ive noticed it only grows max of 5 leaves… I was doing some reading, can across Cannabis Ruderalis whitch fits the description… I also found people saying they are just Mutants… Can anyone Clarify? (The ps4 controller is just there for size comparison) Thanks in advance(Yall are AWESOME)
Hi @pressure_42o. You have a nice ruderalis specimen right there. They are not mutant types of strains but rather strains that are not photosensitive. This means they do not follow the usual light/life cycle of cannabis but rather automatically flower. Ruderalis/Autos or Auto-flowering cannabis varieties or often hybrids of other varieties such as sativa or indica today. For instance lowrider strain is a fairly even split of ruderalis, sativa and indica. Hope to see some nice updates of your plant.
Question? Is there a usual time fram they start flowering? Or its really when they feel like it?
If i do put it under a 12/12 light cycle will it make a difference? Should i just leep it in my veg tent?
Do they get big?
If it started flowering o. Its own it definitely is of ruderalis decent.and best to keep in veg tent.yeilds depends on many factors genetics being the main one.
Its in their genetic makeup when they flower, they are auto-flowering species of cannabis. It looks like a small plant, probably wont be much taller than a couple feet, but because you dont know the exact strain we cant be certain. Let it veg more, get bulkier. Pure ruderalis dont get big, but its more than likely a hybrid.
IMHO 5 finger leaves don’t necessarily indicate a ruderalis plant.
I currently have a purple trainwreck photo clone growing with only 5 fingers on the leaves.
Was 3 leaf for the first bit but still only 5 now.
