Sso, those are my feelings exactly. I'm practically losing sleep over this... its like an itch I can't scratch. My opinion vacillates almost daily.
My current theory is that its seed from an outdoor grown plant that was pollinated with wild, true hemp-type plants. Mostly because it seems more likely that such a variation might be present - and unknown - in the wild. Not as many people, I would think, pay attention to prevailing trends in wild hemp leaf shape.
Otherwise I would have thought like 50 people would've jumped in with definitive answers by now. lolz.
Also, it began developing an unusually woody stem early in its growth... like how you might expect a fully grown mature plant's stem to look, only much narrower.
The leaves themselves also seem to be a little more fibrous... less tender than I would normally expect.
Man. For all I know, I may just be lovingly tending to some kind of dwarf sumac. Oh well.
They're getting almost exactly 12/12 light now after vegging in 24/0 till about earliest vegetative maturity... still no definite signs of sex... been bout week and a half.
