Re: Mutated?

Brock-one year I had a plant that produced 2 "first" true leaves.Took one
off and plant developed normally but later developed a "double barrelled" vine.
 This leads me to believe this characteristic was genetic,not a virus as
some suggest.

                                                                     Al Eaton
