HELP! Second Lush Garden Grow Question

I have just started a second grow of Lush Garden refill (Strawberry Cheesecake) and it has me questioning myself. The leaves are not showing the classic leaf pattern and has me concerned the seed is not the product I purchased. Hoping the last three weeks were wasted due to a bad seed especially with the heat wave my area is experiencing. I have emailed the company but due to the holiday this week I do not expect a reply for a few days with them catching up on customer service emails, so I am also reaching out to this community. Has anybody seen something like this??

Might be a strange pheno or strain?
If you gently rub a leaf between two fingers you can get an early smell. To me, weed smells like weed once the leaves get their little fuzzy texture.
If it ain't weed, I can tell you how to make the best pesto if you are willing to put in the effort.
 
Sorry but that is not a cannabis plant, hope you hear back from the company and they make it right. Good luck
 
Thank you all for the replies. Surprisingly customer service answered my email today and even they are unable to determine what plant it is. They will be speaking with Humboldt who supplies their seeds about the issue. Going to start another refill that was ordered at the same time to test if the other two refills have the same seed or just a one-off issue. Rwise yeah, I'm not thrilled at the cost, but I had no clue where to start, so I went with the whole kit setup in hopes of gaining some growing experience before buying supplies individually. :o Luckily, I found this wonderful fountain of knowledge here and been reading up, so I don't have to keep buying from them.
 
Google said that plant is basil. I would hate being burned by a seed supplier. The GWE web site has 4 recommendations. If you can use any of them to get seeds to your part of the world I’d recommend it. Sorry about the ripoff.
 
The plant could be cannabis if it has been heat stressed. That's what they look like if that happens.
 
Can you get a pic of the seeds?
Not what you were looking for I'm guessing, but without cutting open the sheet seed "pouch" in the middle, there is no way to show seed contained within, The kit contains a 5 gallon fabric pot, veg & flower fertilizers & dirt plastic bag that gets dumped into the fabric pot then this seedsheet on the dirt covering for 2 weeks with water only to germinate the seed. Here are the instructions that they provided: https://lush.garden/pages/guide2 which for my first grow worked OK for an auto (March to June in NYC area), just need to do more LST since quantity was lower than I hoped for (not enough colas).

At the top of this page in the green bar click on the "Seeds" link. Here is a good place to start.
They do this very much word will get around and they wont sell anything to anyone. Are they replacing it?
 
Y'know, I can't find much on Lush.garden online. They were on Shark Tank. That's about it. A link that says they have 1,000+ 4.9 star reviews only gets you to their homepage. No reviews that don't come with studio portraits of the reviewers.
I appreciate what it is being sold as, but too gimmicky for me. I'm too much a skeptic.
But, hey. I was serious about that hands-on pesto recipe.
 
When I first read the first post my thought was scammer. Then I looked at the pic and had a good laugh and followed the link (usually dont do that). Some nice shinola, but no way would I lay my money down. He/She is not a scammer he/she got scammed (thats why I ask for pics of the seed). Another great option is pizza with basil tomatoes and mozzarella! (my girls luv this pizza!)
 
Well that is just odd and the buds they show in a jar would not entice me to do business with them. I would cut my losses and go with a reputable seed bank or direct from the breeder. The cost of a seed is nothing compared to the time and money spent growing it.
 
Commenting on this post, because I got a Lush Garden kit on sale in 12/2024, and it took forever to clear a space for it, and once we were ready, we realized we'd lost the manual to put it together.

I called (all-circuits-busy busy signal - I haven't heard one of those in YEARS), emailed (no response) and did the Contact Us on their website (no response). And now, of course, the company seems to no longer exist.

In the meantime, we have what I presume is a perfectly good grow tent, with some presumably questionable seeds (supposed to be Trainwreck).

Does anyone have a copy of the manual to put the tent together, that they'd be willing to send me? Even if their seeds turn out not to work, I can always get more seeds. I'd really like to build the tent. I'm *completely* new to growing.

Thanks in advance!
