Does marijuana ever have 5 leaves?

Question

like it starting growth

Answer 1

About 10 centimeters or less above the cotyledons, the first true leaves arise, a pair of oppositely oriented single leaflets each with a distinct petiole (leaf stem) rotated one-quarter turn from the cotyledons. Subsequent pairs of leaves arise in opposite formation and a variously shaped leaf sequence develops with the second pair of leaves having 3 leaflets, the third 5 and so on up to 11 leaflets.

Occasionally the first pair of leaves will have 3 leaflets each rather than 1 and the second pair, 5 leaflets each.

Answer 2

Yes, a seedling will produce simple leaves first, then leaves with 3 parts, then 5 parts on its way to producing the fully-developed adult leaf form.
