Defective Plant?

[BosKoning]

Hi Guys

On my previous grow I planted two seeds, both DP - Strawberry Cough. Both germinated at the same time.

From here on one plant was perfect, no major issues.

The other one was 'sickly' from the start. Both plants had exactly the same treatment up to harvest. The run off PH was steady at 6.6 - 6.8

Since they are already harvested, it's no use trying to fix it, but I'm interested to see what you guys think.

Healthy one:

Sickly one:

 

I have more photos as they grow if you are interested

Very interesting @BosKoning , it could possibly be a genetic thing, more picture would be cool, did the sickly plant continue to create leaves like this?

When breeding Blueberry, some growers say that a person must look for the "mutant", variegated or deformed leaves. These plants usually have terrible yield, but serious tastes and effects. I still find it hard to select plants with "mutant" traits for breeding stock.

How is the aroma and flavor difference between the two plants? Any difference in the high?

This is all assuming the growing conditions are good and there is no "hot soil", as that can also cause leaves to deform.

This is just my opinion, most likely a bit off base!

I have not smoked the sick one yet, I might do so tonight to check.

But the aroma difference between them is really pronounced. The healthy ones smells really sweet and strong, where the sick one smells more like leaves.

Eish ja smellin like leaves is not good. From the pictures the sickly plant looks like it could have experienced some lockout, massive difference between the plants.

I have no idea to be honest, not sure if it is a genetic thing or like you say, a sickly plant.  

You could email Dutch Passion with the pictures and ask them for their opinion.

I'm sure some members here at 420SA will know the cause, did you grow in coco mix with nutes? I saw on another thread that the guys advise a runoff of about 5.8 - 6.0 if i remember correctly, for Coco/perlie mixes.
