Gelato with Odd Genetics

I posted earlier about a Gelato seed that I popped that had the odd leaves due to the genetic condition Variegation. I also noted that the buds seemed to be putting out a lot of white pistils even though the trichomes where cloudy with some amber.

I took clones and flowered out the one that showed no signs of Variegation. But as expected, a bit of variegation did appear although not as much as on the mother. This girl was also putting out a lot of white pistils near harvest time so I decided to let her go an extra 8 days just in case I was harvesting too early. After another 8 days she was showing 50% or more amber trichomes and even more white pistils! I harvested and she is drying now, buds look great but I never had one go so amber before, this should be interesting.

It looks really good. Sounds like a good night time bud. Did it just stack pistils on the tops?

Interesting. Certainly not foxtailing. Seems like a mutation similar to rodelization as a last attempt to pass on genetic traits. Guessing the variegation is another strange mutation. Mutations are probably going to become more common as breeding gets more common. Going to be interesting to see what shows up over time.
