Twins

[first grow]

Planted one seed in this pot, there was only one sprout for the last two days, checked them before I went to bed and there was only one.

 

Checked them just then(12pm) and I have a second sprout in there. Do I have twins?

Wow... that's an interesting one... Never seen that... If you really did plant just one seed, it's possible I suppose for there to be two embryo's in one seed... I've never seen it before, or heard of it...

 

Anyone else?

Well i get impatient an decided to have a look , i got in there peaking round , i got little piece of bark an soft dug down

And to my amazement there WAS two roots I'm just as happy though , Also Attached is some other newborns

 

I dont have any spare pots So i just put One of the new shoots to the other side of pot. I hope they last till Wednesday .i didnt handdle them to much so I feel they will survive the ordeal.

Don't want to seem harsh mate, but don't be doing that one again.. at this stage their pretty fragile little things, so leave em alone for the mo... Although if you think you can transplant one of the easier to remove seedlings now, I'd do it, to give it room it needs now. When they grow up they'll be too intertwined in root sys to do otherwise... and leaving them like that will only make them weaker. If they're two sep plants, I'd say transplant one now, or in the near future.

 

Make sure you note which plants were the twins too... I'll be interested to see their sex and plant characters....
