What the bloody hell`s going on here?

[PaganRich]

I`m pacing this Tutankhamon until I have space to grow it, got some others I want to run first. Anyway was having a look at my Buddha and noticed the weird stemming....now as others have seen before it isn`t unusual for me to have branches that have merged or flatten and I`m wondering if this is the same due to me forgetting about it, the orchid clip and the chop stick (Sounds like a Nik Cave song). Any ideas anyone....me, I reckon it`s restrictive growth causing this...curious to see where this could go....stay mellow

I don't know what it is but I like it cool as shit ask another brother.lol

That's awesome been wondering about this on cannabis. As a landscaper I've seen this many times on all sorts of plants. All it does is merge branches together and flatten them. Last I looked into it it's a virus but I've never seen any damage or consequence on a plant in my yards. It just looks real funky. In case I forget remind me tonight pacific time to take a pic of a conifer in my yard that has been specially bred to keep this feature all over the plant.

 

[PaganRich]

We do seem to forget that this is just a type of plant and surely there are other examples out there in nature generally

 

[LuckyAcres]

I actually had been keeping my eyes open to see if it happened on mj so you just fulfilled a gardeners fantasy of some sort 😅

 

[alltatup]

Bloody ell, that is way cool!!!!!! Your orchid is beautiful, too.

 

[PaganRich]

I have a way with the lady orchids ....they seem to like me

 

[PaganRich]

I`m not sure if that`s a good thing or just a tad pervy ....I have other grow pics of adult versions of this on GWE.....does happen periodically to me

 

[alltatup]

You are an orchid whisperer.

 

[PaganRich]

I was until they issued the Restraining Order

 

[alltatup]

Pagan, I'm beginning to think that underneath that daunting, terrifying, threatening exterior, you have the heart and the green thumb of a cream puff. (I won't tell.)

 

[PaganRich]

Madam, there are many things you can call me but cream puff ain`t one......though I do like the daunting, terrifying, threatening exterior bit.....

 

[alltatup]

I know, Pagan: I was just fuckin wit ya...

 

[PaganRich]

I know....and in a pleasant way....nothing anal this side. Others can be touchy as hell though

 

[alltatup]

With all due respeck to others, fuck 'em... It's Friday afternoon and I'm gettin high...

 

[LuckyAcres]

No Title

Hey cream puff! Check this out! Hunting down the details on the plant, but it was given to me few years back.

 

[LuckyAcres]

I have a name for this fellow below.
cryptomeria japonica cristata

 

[alltatup]

Lucky, you're gonna get me in trouble! Can you please call him, Oh Horrific One?

 

[alltatup]

I have seen these and think they're really beautiful.

 

[PaganRich]

You two do realise that I`m trying to convey a fearsome warrior image here whose name should be Pagan Bloodaxe or Wades Through Rivers Of Gore.....can you imagine it, `Right lads, they outnumber us 50 to 1 but don`t worry, we`ve got Cream Puff here. He`ll carve his way through them`..`CREAM PUFF! CREAM PUFF!`..
